Khyn put the water glass down and lay back on the bed, one leg swinging along the side of it. She stared up at the ceiling for a few long moments and then let her gaze wander around the small room. There was a door that led either to a closet or perhaps a washroom, she didn't know, and there were a few pieces of furniture. The room looked like something her grandmother might have decorated. The furniture looked antique and yet still had a classy tone to them, though the soft pink walls were definitely not something Khyn particularly liked. Something atop a tall dresser caught her eyes as it sparkled in the light. She tilted her head as wondered what it was. A moment later she stood up and went over to discover it was small golden box, roughly the size of a man's pocket watch. She reached out and picked it up and found that it was surprisingly light. When she opened it, a soft tinkling music started playing a haunting tune. She smiled briefly as her eyes drooped slightly and she carried it back to the bed, suddenly quite sleepy. She lay down on the bed once more and, as she held the music box in her hand, fell asleep.
I wonder if the Doctor has seen to Fi-- Her last thought halted as she fell into slumber.

Brave Penguin Musashi (Accidentally deleted my operating system. Sorry for the delay.) The sound of flesh hitting floor alerted Fiasco to the presance of someone else in the room, but what he saw in the mirror he was looking into proved to be more than just an intruder. Fiasco whirled around to view the strange looking... man? Not important. Everything about his atire screamed confusion. Fiasco found himself wondering why this person accused him of napping when it was apparent that he was standing at a mirror... trying to get dressed. "I.. don't... No." He found himself faking the early portion of a conversation. "I understand perfectly." He lied. "I couldn't even begin to understand how to..." He faltered, "You." He finished the sentance awkwardly. "Let's start over. What are you doing in here?" Fiasco's expression said it all. Ani looked round him slowly and then shrugged, a bemused expression flitting over his face for a brief moment."I wish with all sincerity that I had the faintest idea but unfortunately my presence seems to have volition of its own and I hoped you'd shed more light into it..."His words trailed off uncertainly and then he looked off into space. "Nevertheless being here has saved me from what would have been a very rusty situation, so I am glad!" A bright smile appeared on his face as he eagerly stepped forward, hand extended it, clasping his host's hands in his for a moment. "I am Ani, and it is a pleasure to make your acquaintance."

Fiasco stared at the lunatic shaking his hand. "Likewise." He then waited for the shakeing to stop. Fortunately, before the hand shakeing got dragged out, There was a knock at the door. "Coming." Fiasco stated loudly as he started pulling his hand away from Ani. "If You'll excuse for a minute." He finished pulling his hand away and went to the door. Upon it being opened, one of the rabbits that led him to this room stood before him.
"The council will see you and your friends now." it's melodic voice said.
"Sure." Fiasco responded with an unsure tone of voice. "I'll just go get them." He raised his eybrows and smiled. He turned to Ani "Coming?" Not quite sure what else to say, so he posed the question.
------------------------------------------
The Cat leaped onto the bed next to Khyn, curled up at her side, and went to sleep. He dreamt of other worlds, and other warriors. Conflict after conflict played out behind his eyes. He was weary, but hopeful. Perhaps his war would be over sooner than everyone else thought, and maybe, just maybe, he could get these kids home.

Traci opened her eyes slowly, then bolted up. Woops. Must've been more tired than she thought.
She hurried to the mirror to make sure her hair was all in good order.
It was actually pretty sloppy, but its sloppiness appealed to her. She nodded her head, satisfied, and turned around.
"Now what is there to do in this place?" she muttered comically, enjoying the silliness of talking to herself.
"Well, there's no point in staying here, there's obviously nothing left to do here." She made a few funny faces in the mirror and then picked up her backpack and left the room.
Traci was surprised to find the group of rabbits outside. Which was kind of silly, but whatever.
She didn't really bother to find out what they were doing, or who they were talking to. She simply approached them cautiously and posed a question that had been nagging her...
"Hey, can you understand me if I call you fluffy cute little conejitos?" she asked, making an effort to make her tone bright and happy. As frivolous as it might sound, she really wanted to know if Japanese was the only language they could understand besides English.

Even though the door to her room was still slightly ajar, neither the noise of the rabbits moving around, nor the voices from the others seemed to stir Khyn. Neither did the slight motion of Cat jumping up beside her prone figure. She slept deeply, her breathing even and soft. The music from the box held in her sleeping hand could not be heard where she was. Unbeknowest to her, the box closed of it's own accord and her hand closed tightly around it. In her sleep she was surrounded by darkness, thick as tar and with no sound. She couldn't see herself, yet it felt as if she could. It felt as if she were walking and yet floating still as can be in space. She felt disorientated and started to think that she wasn't real, that nothing that had ever happened had been real. As despair started creeping, a soft red light appeared, as if far off and yet coming closer. As it approached, a willowly figure could be seen coming from the red radiance. Khyn stared at the blackest of eyes that stared into her own green eyes. Her head tilted as she stared into the dark pools and she barely could take notice that the figure was holding a pale, pale arm out to her. Her own pale arm reached out to accept what the figure was giving. Just moments, and yet an eternity, before she was able to grab ahold of the offered object, Khyn was awoken.
(good place to stop I guess. Anyone else can decide how she is woken and by whom. lol!)

Ani's first instinct wast to take a step back from the new arrivalsbut then he reckoned that the unfortunate incident that happened in the courtyard was still in the works or at least forgotten for now. His recent acquaintance didn't seem distressed by the rabbits and so he decided not to be either. A quick glance around the room was followed by an even quicker nod, his eyes shining with interest once the conversation between the other two became clear.
"Well good sir, I do not see the harm in doing just so. But to hear that you are a member of a party, how nice! I love parties...especially when they stay for tea." A bright smile followed his words and he started toward the door.

Fiasco was surpised to learn that Ani's off hand remark about tea parties made him quite hungry. "Yes," Fiasco said to Ani, "Nothing's quite like a nice tea party." He walked out of the room to see the small rabbits gathered in the center, waiting patiently for his friends. He strolled over to Khyn's partially open door and knocked. "Khyn, where leaving. The alleged rabbit council is ready to see us." No response. He knocked again, only louder this time. "Khyn! You sleeping?" He heard Traci talking to the rabbits in a another language.
The rabbits looked at Traci quizically, not quite sure how to respond to the girl. One rabbit spoke up "I don't suppose that would be a problem, I mean, we are, aren't we?"
Fiasco wasn't quite sure if he wanted to have been a part of the conversation before he walked into the room. "Hey, Trace, could you check on Ryu for me? I don't want to keep them waiting." He then noticed one rabbit looking between him and Ani.
"One enters, two leave?" the rabbit appeared to be muttering to itself.

Traci couldn't resist clapping her hands childishly. "How fun! Well I can tell we're going to be best buddies. I already have my own secret code language for us!"
She finally looked at Fiasco when she heard her name. The unfamiliar non-rabbit person drew a confused glance from her, but she decided to let it go for now and finish the task assigned to her.
"Okee," she told him, and turned, trying to remember where Ryu had gone.
Oh, yes. It was this one...
"Ryuuuuu-channn!! Time to go! Um...crap, how do you say...oh, screw it. Ryuuuuu!!!" She knocked on the door lightly, in contrast to her slightly loud voice.
Traci crinkled her eyebrows at the voices she heard inside but said nothing and waited.

Ryu opened the door to get knocked on the forehead. "Kun is preferred. Chan works, though."
((Meh, WB. Kun is for guys, BTW. Lol, she wants to be called a guy! XD))

Khyn blinked in confusion as she was abruptly woken from the very real dream. The pounding upon her door repeated once and she recognized Fiasco's voice. She sat up and moved to stand up, nearly rolling on top of Cat, who'd been slumbering next to her. It looked up and then stretched, not saying anything. As she moved towards the door to join the others, she suddenly remembered the music box. It was still clutched tightly in her hand and she noticed upon looking at it once more, it did indeed have the same size and shape of a pocket watch. She turned it over and studied the carvings of the outside. The picture seemed to move and change just enough that she wasn't able to completely catch sight of anything in particular. It was very odd. The movements seemed almost hypnotic as she studied it. It was the sound of Fiasco's impatient call that brought her back. She blinked slowly and then moved for the door.
"I'm coming," she called back. As she was reaching towards the slightly opened door, she was suddenly overcome with a feeling that the others shouldn't see the music box. She glanced around looking for a hiding spot but knew that she must keep it with her. Her eyes widened slightly and she tucked it into the pocket of her uniform skirt. Once she felt the front of her skirt and couldn't discernibly see the slight bulge, she left her room, stopping at the sight of the strange boy.
"Who's he?" she nodded slightly towards the boy. Her voice held the trace tone of mistrust and dislike. Ah yes, what a friendly thing she was, huh!

What an interesting medley of people these are, Ani thought to himself with not a little amount of excitement as he waited along side his new acquaintance. From their clothes he could instantly tell that they were not of this world, and that made him wonder just how they'd gotten here in the first place. Ever since his apparitions began, Ani couldn't remember once encountering someone else beset with the same affliction. He was about to ask the other boy when yet another door opened to reveal yet another girl.
"Who's he?" She asked and Ani blinked, wondering if he would be drawing her ire...or perhaps he already had. A faint smile appeared around his lips and he shrugged. "I suppose then that you are yet another member of the tea party...I take it that theres no angel cake for you then." The smile disappeared and his eyes became contemplative. "But perhaps pie should be better...it's so much more direct and universal; no fussing about it and it can be used with all things round...." Ani's gaze began trailing up to the ceiling as his words once again began jumbling together but he quickly caught himself. "You did ask about my identity! Forgive me, my name is Confound...An-"
His eyes fell on the next figure emerging from the room and widened with recognition as he bent low and took a step forward, "well if isn't Tin Cat!"

Traci raised her eyebrows at hearing Ryu's request to use an honorific she usually only heard from fangirls referring to the objects of their obsession...Sora-kun, Auron-kun, etc. But she shrugged and turned to survey the new arrival.
She sighed and conceded, "I have no idea what's going on." It wasn't very fun and she wished someone would hurry up and explain this fully.

(sorry for the delay in posting. Finals coming up in science, but humanities be done. Rock)
The Cat looked up at Ani, a hint of sly humour played across his face. "I'm not going to another of your tea partys, Hatter. Last time you dressed me up in a hoorible ansemble of clothes that vaugely resembled compost."
Fiasco took a step back as the situtation spanned more than just a few people(rabbits and cats too for that matter). "The Rabbit's say their ready for us." He then looked from one face to another, not quite sure who he was trying to convince. "Perhaps we shouldn't keep them waiting?" He looked at Khyn, opened his mouth as if he were going to explain something, then closed it suddenly, shaking his head. "Ani, please finish your thoughts before you interupt yourself. I'm not quite sure what this means in this case, but it's rude. To interupt... yourself."
The rabbits edged closer to the group of seemingly confused people, and grasped at shirts. They tugged at them lightly. "The counsel awaits. You should make haste so that they include you in their decisions."
"Yes." Fiasco agreed, "God forbid that they don't include us. I'd hate that. Really, I would." He tried to explain to the rabbits in the most serious voice he could muster, but he didn't think the lie played out well, but he could hope. He let them drag him to the door. "I mean really, that would be a travesty."

Traci jerked away from the rabbits indignantly and justified herself. "I've been ready to go, it's not me that's holding us up!"
To prove her statement further, she picked up her pace to once again be walking briskly near the head of the group.

Khyn looked down at the Rabbit who had tugged at her shirt. Her jaw clenched and her eyes narrowed slightly as she stared at the creature. It nervously twitched it's nose a moment before it's ears lay back on it's head and it let go of her. She then ran her hands down her shirt to smooth it out and followed Traci as they left the sleeping area. She glanced at Ani and Fiasco as she walked past them. The new boy was an odd thing indeed.
