Welcome to Gaia! ::

"I'll bring the tents back too," Kyrie smiled. "I might be an hour or so. See you all then."

Uruloki appeared beside her, and she climbed up on his back. The dragon spread his wings, and the two of them left by the large broken window.

"Come." Cael motioned for them to follow him. "Let's go."

Earendil and Andarien were still fast asleep. Andarien had one arm around Eon and was snuggling with him, but Zeus had woken and was exploring the room curiously. Ponydash was still on guard by the door, as were the soldiers that had been there earlier.

When Lin entered the room, Zeus smelled the food immediately and ran over to Lin and looked up at her expectantly.

Zeus's ears perked up when he heard that Lin had food for him, and he began to dance around excitedly. He let out a quiet bark and nipped his brother teasingly as they waited for Lin to give them food.

Quiet though the bark was, it woke Andarien from his sleep, and he blinked groggily and looked around. "Zeus?"

Zeus unfortunately was much smaller than his Flareon brother, and that meant slower, too; and so he had only one way to try to get to the food before Yasu.

He zapped him.

It wasn't a powerful zap, just enough to make Yasu stumble. Yipping back at his brother, Zeus ran for the food at full speed.

Ponydash snorted and walked slowly and carefully towards the food, as if showing the younger Pokemon how it ought to be done.

Andarien sat up, releasing Eon, who also hopped down to get himself some dinner. "Is Ada awake yet?" he asked sleepily, suppressing a yawn. He stretched. Having slept on a chair rather than the couch, he had been quite balled up during his nap.

Earendil was still asleep, but he was frowning slightly and had rolled over.

Andarien stood up and looked over at his mother, rubbing the sleep out of one eye. "Can we eat, too, Nana?" he asked quietly. "Or should we wait for Ada to wake up?"

He could see that she was looking over at him, so he wondered.

Andarien nodded and looked around. "Where are we going to eat?" he asked her. "Over there?"

He gestured towards the couch and chairs and the low table that was between them.

Like Miyuki, Andarien sat on his knees beside the table and began to eat.

While the noise had not been enough to wake Earendil, the scent of the food did: soon after the food was uncovered, he found himself awake and with his mouth watering.

"Is that food I smell?" he murmured tiredly, his eyes still closed as he turned his head towards the aroma.

Earendil pushed himself into a sitting position. "Hmm ... I think I'd like to join the kids over there," he decided. "I'll need help getting there, though."

He ran his fingers through his hair and smiled sleepily at Lin. He was just plain happy to be alive and back with his family. He didn't mind being weak for now.
