Welcome to Gaia! ::

Felina frowned looking down at her fingernails "Not everyone is bored, some like peace and quiet. Dad is trying his best, he's getting a carnival here in less than a month but because everone is different he can't please everyone. Also in less than a week it will be our equivelent of valentines day so he'll have something up his sleeve for that" she answered defensively.

Hayate raised his eyebrow at Alpha moving his hand away from a bee who had landed next to him "Since when did you care about nature or know anything about it?" he smirked glancing up at the bees. "It may look nice now but setting those pollen balls up is hell."

Satoshi rolled her eyes flapping her hand at a different bee "I really hate stinging bugs" she groaned teleporting onto Hebal's flower to see what she was pointing at. "Hmm... that can't be a very old one, it's way too small to be an adult" she remarked taking a step back.

Corella giggled as a bee landed on the top of her head or about 10seconds "They won't bother you much. Just don't move if one comes near you Mr.Barbaros and if one does sting you, Felina knows how to reat allergies" she reassured him.

Alpha snickered shaking the tulip Itaka was sitting in "You must be getting old up their, I told you yesterday that before the war I was a teacher. I tought biology and physics and had to take the younger ones on a field trip based entirely on ecology" he stated proudly shaking the tree more vigorously.

Seph snickered "We already smell of them but I think you've taken in some of the pollen from one of the happy plants considering how moody you were with Oassu earlier" she teased rolling over to face Jenna. "Too many smells mixed together aren't all that good either"

Hebal hesitated watching the sprite snuggle further into the flower "I don't know, it looks a little young to be honest. What exactly are you wanting a sprite for anyway? It would be ok as a pet but it's not big enough to battle" she eventually answered glancing around in case there were other sprites around.

Meanwhile a familiar face belonging to another half demon known as Hikari Shiroi watched the group from a nearby tree with great interest. She sighed jumping down from the tree as a swarm of bees flew casually towards her. "Heh this should be an interesting holiday" she muttered to herself making her way down the back road towards the airship.

Mari squealed taking the jar from Satoshi "I'll take great care of her" she said looking in at the little fairy now looking around her prison "Though we'll have to let her out of here as soon as possible" she said sadly "It's cruel to cage her but lets call her Ivy like the plant" she said watching the sleepy sprite settle down on the leaves and go back to sleep.

Oassu giggled "Elven Valentines day huh? Didn't seem that long ago we had one of these in the Viera village but I should get you something too" he said poking her nose.

Jenna sat down swaying a little "Actually I do feel a little dizzy" she mumbled before collapsing backwards on the flower asleep.

Barbaros sighed standing up to look at Jenna "I think someone's had a little too much pollen" he shook his head "I better get her back to the inn" he said pulling her onto his shoulder before writing something on a small piece of paper "Here ya go Itaka, meet me here later for a drink or two" he said giving him the address "it's in the rough side of the city but better ale you won't find anywhere else, your all welcome to come along too y'know!" he told the others before pushing a button attached to his trousers. A minute or two later his bad-a** motorbike drove into the clearing and he placed Jenna on it before getting on himself "Later bruthas!" he called driving off.

Itaka held his head a little dizzy from the shaking "Ugh stop that" he said looking at the card "Anyway are we about done here? I think I'm starting to get hayfever." he said.

Zadina smirked floating down from the flower "Looks like Mari has a new pet now, a sprite," he cheered.

Sophia blinked curiously at the sprite placed in the bag with her. It's warm green glow brighting up the interior. Waddling up to the jar Sophia hugged her new friend's house.

Felina laughed poking Oassu's nose back "It's not the same thing as valentines day. It's a day based more on actions than cheap cards and flowers but I feel really bad about not getting you a valentines day gift" she told him sitting up. "We better go, some of the others are getting bored"

Hayate laughed catching his hat and placing it back on his head "Heh you're not that badly effected. Everyone is different but usually that sort of dizzyness wears off after 10minutes. Nothing compared to what happened with Jenna" he reassured Seph jumping off the flower.

Satoshi grinned brushing herself off "Next time don't hesitate. You have got to catch these little creatures by surprise or they will fly away" she advised Mari while climbing down the flower stalk. "Straight onto the temple right?"

Corella jumped up and down happily before finally jumping down from the flower "Yay you go yourself a new sprite friend. Make sure to let her have pleanty of water and put some airholes in quickly or else she will die" she pointed out suddenly realising there were no holes in the top of the jar.

Seph giggled patting Itaka on the head "You're worrying too much. I was just feeling a little dizzy and can walk just fine by myself" she reassured him ruffling his hair. "I don't intend on getting off my head this evening, it wouldn't look too good when we return to the palace"

Alpha raised his eyebrow at the comment he had received from Itaka "Oh really how many kids does he have? I wouldn't tell him this but I think he'll be missing out on a lot of good things by travelling around rather than spending loads of time with them" he admitted blasting away a young marlboro.

Hebal giggled taking one last look at the flowers before continuing on into the forest. "Ivy will need some training. She is going to be a tricksy one." she smiled holding out a tissue to dry Zadina's face. "Perhaps a little too much water that time. It nearly floosed the jar."

Oassu giggled to himself I'm sure I can arrange something for us he hugged Felina "Off to the temple now!" he chirped. "And anywhere in the world is good" he said kissing her shoulder "It's exciting being in one place too long gets boring."


Mari giggled putting the jar away "Ivy can sleep now I'll let her out and we can get better acquainted when we're in our room" she said looking up the hill. "I'm just glad I caught one of them" she said glomping Hebal "Thankies Hebal!!!" she squealed.

Itaka paused "Yeah...I forgot about that" he sighed walking up the hill "Shame we can't, guess Barbaros is lucky." he shrugged glancing at Alpha "He's got four 5th on the way, Scarlet had 4 kids at once" he said with a whistle "She's some girl but his kids are grown now so he's alright going away besides" he said turning around "he's only out here to bring me back, I expect he'll get tired of travelling with us before long and then he'll ask for me to go back again" he sighed.

Zadina mopped his face up "Silly Ivy" he said looking at the jar in her bag and patting Sophia who was looking out at everyone. "Least Sophia will have someone to play with" he said.

Felina grabbed hold of Oassu's hand helping him climb up the hill "Yeah spending over 100 years in one place is boring. Though I have never taken this route to the temple, I usually take the steps." she added almost tripping over a rock which had been sticking out. "It's really fun going on an airship but theres little space to move around in" she added to her sister.

Hayate sighed "I may be able to put a few of you up for the if you get too drunk to go to the palace but only 3 of you if two of you are willing to share the bed in the spare room and someone else goes on the couch. Otherwise you're on the floor" he answered striding up the slope.

Satoshi snickered reaching uo tp pat Hebal on the back. "Don't be modest. Even if it was luck you still managed to find one that I could scoop up without it waking up." She let out a groan looking up at the steepness of the hill "There is no way I am climbing all the way up there, I am so going to teleport"

Corella giggled watching Sophia reach out to hug the jar "She just got a new friend but she might be a little tough with her at first because of Ivy's size" she chirped while the tonberry stabbed the jar with her plastic knife.

Seph grinned jumping down from Itaka's shoulders. "I know all that after what happened last time, I was just checking. Also I feel a little less dizzy now and you don't need me making this climb harder" she added making her way up the hill almost tripping on a rock. "I don't like the landing part of flying around and it's nothing in comparison to actually flying but the airship isn't so bad"

Alpha smirked slowly making his way upwards "As the driver of the airship I must say this lot can be highly distracting at times. It's also pianful seeing all them drink beers without me" he complained jokingly. "It's still good and saves weeks of travelling by foot."

Hebal laughed easily skipping halfway up the hill "I don't know what you guys are struggling with. This isn't such a bad climb after all" she chirped stopping to remove some of the dirt from her heels and to wait for the others. "Come on slow pokes, we don't want to be out in the rain."
