Welcome to Gaia! ::

She smiles lightlyand explains the song a bit before starting, "Dance We're Free, written by myself after we escaped from a... jail of sorts to lift the spirits of my comrades. It is fitting because the masks are slowly being freed from the curse and we are free and quite happy to dance and sing all night."

Kataio closes her eyes and clears her throat, begining her up beat tune, "Here we band toge~ther under the moon~ Dance the night away~. We're free~. We're free~! Sing~, rejoice~ take your hand in mine. Under the moon~ we sing~ our song. Brought together by~ uncer~tain times. Still here we are toge~ther sa~fe at last. Our life now we de~ceide o~ur path. Our life now free~ at last. Not one to chain~ us, beat~ us, harm~ us. I look out for you~ and you~ for me. Bro~thers, Si~sters, Lovers~ at last. Here we band toge~ther under the moon~. Here we stand toge~ther free at last. Dance the night away~ wi~th me. Dance the night away~ happy and free..."

Tynan was just reaching the clearing when Kataio started to sing. It made him stop dead in his tracks. She hadn't sang that song since the night they escaped, and getting her to sing was like pulling teeth. It didn't matter though he still had to talk to her, if his feet ever remembered how to work.

The song finished and Tynan started to walk again as if broken from a spell. He strode quickly up to the clearing. To be seen or not to be seen. He pondered that thought for a moment. It doesn't matter... But I would rather no questions. A little chill in the air and a frosty path to follow should do the trick. He smirks to himself as he reachs out his power to chill the air around Kata. The Tynan carefully placed the lightest frost on the ground leading to his location, unless you were looking you would find it difficult to see the shine of the fresh frost on the ground. Now wait for her to come to me.

Kata shivered as she finished the song. She had a sudden chill. After bowing to her little but happy crowed, she jumped down off the rock. She hadn't sang in a long time, that was the only reason for the chill. Tynan would not come this close to the camp, would he? Kataio shook her head and wandered off to get a sip of juice, gripping her mask tighter as if to keep it warm.

She smiled at G_E as she walked by, G_E would be one of the only few that knew what that song was about. Kata reached out and took the green apple jug, pouring a small amount in a glass for herself then moving closer to the fire to get warm.

I can't believe the chill in the air. I must have post preformance jitters. She made a face and downed her drink. Kata looked down at the ground around her feet, finally noticing a light frost even this close to the fire. No, no, not now Tynan. Kata ran her hand lightly through her hair and worried her lip thinking. What do you want now?

His guardian was cooking... his camp was partying in the middle of the most dangerous part of the planet, and he was stuck in a %#$^&^% mask. It sucked. Seriously. He could feel the sisters in the distance, Shiva somewhere near, a few more confined... sleeping.

Dammit, he was TIRED of sleeping in this gods-forsaken mask. He wanted OUT! He had things to do, people to put in their places. And revenge to get on the person that had stuck him in this mask.

A dark, almost unnoticable smoke came out of the mask lying on the table, seeming to swirl slightly, then become more focused as a tough looking boy appeared. He smirked, only to go wide-eyed as the table beneath him cracked, then broke under his weight. He hit the ground, watching in shock as all of the food on the table slid down, crashing and splattering all over his pocket covered pants.

.... He turned, looking up at Kali. You know... you could have warned me that the table wasn't stable.

((The... second of the Draco series has arrived!! Admire his badness! ADMIRE I tell you!!

Or at least the pretty gold eyes heart *Smirks as he glares at her*))

G_E smiled back at Kata as she passed. The air was cooler... odd. As far as G_E knew Masquerade was always warm. Maybe it was a change of seasons? Kata looked a little paranoid and she was just about to ask what was wrong when she spun around. Something had crashed...

She looked around warily and then smiled at Kata's discription of him. " A bouncing baby boy?"

Kataio smirked at the new arrival. "He looks, well I don't think happy is quite the word I would use, to be out of his mask stage. Is he saying happy things Kali?" She shivered again pursing her lips, she knew she had to go soon, but first to welcome kid sized Galilee.

G_E laughed, she may not have known what he was saying but she could guess and Kali was giving away huge hints. It was king of funny...

She frowned and stared at the rubix cube in the boy's hands, "I hate those things... I never could manage to solve them."

Ice watched the newcomer, wondering if this was the one Io was talking about... the reason she had left. She scowled, wondering if she would start to resent the new masks as much as Io had. They had caused her masque... her daughter... to leave her.

But... he was kind of cute. She shrugged off the dark mood, snickering at the talk that surrounded his coming. "What are we waiting for, people? We have food to eat! Or... at least a roasted beast. Looks like the rest of that stuff is a write off."

She waved them forward as Scagg and Loki got the food ready to eat.

Silva blinked. That had been... strange. He finished off his impromptu meal and lit up a cigarette. This group just got more and more interesting...
