Welcome to Gaia! ::

“Oh yes.” Molly sighed happily. “I’m more than alright.” She beamed then, and as they were somewhat briefed and handed headsets, the Mist trainee absent mindedly put hers on. She should ask Kostya what he had for breakfast this morning…in full detail. Hopefully he had a lot…so that…you know…he had a lot to talk about er-- so that Molly knew he was healthy! Yeah. Because a good breakfast made for a better hunter.

Molly nodded this in affirmation to herself, and then was tossed through a portal.

Asking about breakfast was the furthest thing from her mind though, as they were thrown into a sea of people. The mist trainee immediately froze as she was pushed around, wide eyed as she took in her surroundings. Wait…wait…was this Greece!? The worry gave way to excitement! Oh the history! She’d seen this place on the Discovery and History channel many time—

Oh hey, was that Dakota’s voice in her ears?

She immediately looked around again…and couldn’t find her team mates anywhere. She panicked, until Mark gave them directions. Okay! Focus…find the chal—

Oh hey, that was Kostya’s voice in her ears now.

Molly sighed dreamily again…and then came to as she realized she was standing right next to Kostya and nearby a chalice symbol.

She was summoned by the accent

“…O…oh um, I’m here too!” She informed her other team members in the head set, and then shyly glanced over at Kostya.

“…He….hello! Um…did you eat breakfast this morning? I really hope you did…and if you did, please tell me what you had in full detail? Because….breakfast is very important.” She beamed brightly at him and cupped her cheeks with her hands as she waited.

"OTTO? OTTO?" Dakota could hear the teen through the headpiece and grinned. "Tell them it cost money to get ahold of a dead man's goods!"

Jesus, the train of people was ridiculous and it was only by chance that he heard one of them mention greece. "Damn guys! WE'RE IN GREECE." Go figure, Aphrodite = Greece.

"Marcus Brother, Can you see me?" Maybe he could see the giant Dakota among all the other people. "Kostya, Molly good job guys. Stay put, don't move okay, We'll join you soon."

Then he too felt a hand in his pants and grinned. "Look lady, Unlike my friend, You gotta pay for the goods. Though something could be arranged for-" Dakota looked right into the face of a large round plump man with a few pimples on his face. Augh...what the ********. "DUDE SERIOUSLY, STOP GROPING!!!"

But he was pushed away by the people before getting a good punch in.

"Otto I hate to tell you but...we will need to deeply cleanse ourselves. Marcus, whats your position brother?"

"Oh are you going to come find me Otto?" Dakota grinned, "Make sure to use your small little abilities to get through the crowd~~"

"Could you stop screaming into the headset?" He winced at the yell. At one point he was like. "******** it man." And used his height and power to push through the crowd.

"THAT'S RIGHT ********, I'M BIGGER THAN YA'LL NOW GET OUT OF MY WAY-" Oh hey! There was a red crop of hair he liked. Molly!

And Kostya.
The virgin.

"Kostya Bro, I told you not to let go!" He pointed accusingly at the other moon hunter. "Dude! This mission could be nil if you disappear on us." He threw up his hands before focusing on his two other teammates.

"Hey I'm at the location, Don't know if you can see me Marcus...or Otto but We're out of tourist central...a little off to the side actually. Rockey ground...uh...Molly how would you describe this place so Marcus and Otto can find us?"

"I am not tall enough to be sveen over tourists," Kostya said into the mic, standing with a frown. "You vill find soon enough. There are still very many. Too many people."

The redheaded girl appeared, and he offered her a respectful nod of the head.

"I ...did not. Not have chance." She seemed very concerned for his health-- very...eager. "Vas minding own business, da? Then...poof! Dakota!" Kostya waved his hands animatedly, a scowl coming over his face. "Dragging me! Bringing to office! Talking to Mark! Pah." Kostya hunched his shoulders, because the bane of his day had stumbled upon the sigil, too.

Quietly, so quietly, he started to edge away from Dakota, maybe no one would see him---

Somewhere in the crowd, Marcus debated turning the headset off.

But that was pretty dumb. Still he was mildly surprised. Had none of them delt with tourist floods before? "Pick pockets are teeming in places lick this. Also guys be sure to keep runics out of sight if you have them. It may not seem like it, but there usually police among hot spots like this as well. At least there was back home." He was trying to be helpful but he didn't know how helpful he was being.

A few minutes later and-
"Glad to see we're all intact. Now what captain?" Dakota got a half smile.

"Okay, are you guys there?" A pause, "Well, I'm going to assume you guys are there okay. Okay okay, this is the hard part. Dakota, bro-man, step onto the marking and you have to say super loud 'I beseech thee access, fair goddess Aphrodite for your blessing, for your sanctuary and your uh... boobage or something. I dunno just say something that you think would placate her patron spirit. And oh, well need like, three drops of virgin blood onto the marking too."

Kostya froze at the command, reluctant to obey but driven to do so. He didn't edge away, simply sulking instead until he heard Mark talk about virgin blood.

That explained all the horrible questions, at the least. It wasn't just Dakota being overly friendly and/or nosey.

Hesitantly, he shuffled towards Dakota, pulling one of his gloves off.

"Do not be killing me, Dakota," he said gravely, lips pursed. "Vould being very bad."
