Pam stared wide-eyed. She'd seen a few of the other children appear out of nowhere... but she'd been at at a far away distance. Galilee had grown just a few feet from where she was sitting. She bit her lip to keep herself from laughing. He was so adorable... but looked as if he had a temper problem. She grinned, it would be interesting to see how he got along with everyone and everything.
With a sigh she stood up at the call of supper and wandered over to one of the tables. Her eyes wandered over all of the delicious food. Yum...

Everyone was watching the food and talking about the newest arrival, it's a perfect time to dissappear for a bit. Kata backed away from the group following the chilled earth up to the houses. She glanced back, shook her head then continued on. He would be waiting for her just inside the forest she knows that much at least.
__________
Tynan waited impatiently as she slowly made her way to the woods. She always liked to draw things out, and why was she still carrying that mask.

Kaliska sighed and showed Ice the food she'd just prepared on the grill. "I still saved some...hot dogs and bbq cheese burgers. But now...I might have to make more kool-aid...."
Galilee was looking about, as if searching for someone. He shrugged off the thought and held the rubix cube to Ice. Where's the other one?

Ice blinked, looking at the rubix cube blankly. "Did you solve it already?" She finally asked, not sure what he wanted. "That's um... great?" ************************
Silva frowned, watching one of the girls slipping into the woods, then being distracted by the female he had fought earlier. She was talking to the kid that had appeared out of nowhere... but it looked like she didn't know what he was saying.
That was strange... the kid sounded perfectly clear to him. And she had been able to understand the other girl... the one that he had run into at the mall.
Speaking of her... where was she? He scowled, dropping from the tree and going to find her. She had to be somewhere, after all. She couldn't have just disappeared. Right?

"He's asking where the other one is. Maybe Io? He hasn't solved that...no one can solve rubix cubes." Kaliksa was trying to put the bbq'd good she'd made somewhere where they wouldn't get knocked down or stolen.
She looked at Ice, "You think I could teach him sign language? I have a book."

G_E sat down on a chair, took the mask out of its pouch and set him on the table beside her plate. With a grin she began to collect some food for herself.

Pam sat beside G_E and ate as they bonded quite happily.

Cinder passed the glasses out to those that needed drinks and grabbed a bit of food for herself. Making herself comfortable she layed her masque on the table next to her plate, she reflexibly ran her hand along the side of the masque and touched the crack on his head. "Don't worry little one, I will take care of you," Cinder whispered this to the masque and then started eating a bit.
Once she had taken a few bites Cinder brought up Mycroft, he had been along on the hunting mission being carried by Haisyn and was recording so she could get some information on what the rest of the planet looked like. Cinder skipped passed the Rade scene, but paused the vid he was creating in mid air when she got to the beasts. They appeared to be herding beasts of some sort, like the one that had been shot and killed and brought back for dinner. Watching the creatures a thought struck her, turning to the person closest to her Cinder pointed to the vid and marveled, "I wonder if one of those things could be rode." Cinder's eyes sparkled a bit as she thought of it, she then started eating once again.

Ice finished off her food, wiping her mouth with the back of her arm. "So guys, now that it's dark, who's up for horror stories?" She asked, grinning as she looked around. "Kind of childish, but heck, there's children here, right?"
She looked around. "So who wants to go first?"

Haisyn continued eating in silence. She felt a little akward ever since they got back, and she'd tried to do something about it when Pam showed up, but she'd lost her urge for conversation and was feeling more reclusive by the moment. She wasn't much of a story teller. She wasn't much of a talker. Verran might be, but she definitely wasn't, and she had no idea where her brother had gone off too. He'd obviously gotten himself hurt somehow and found it too embarassing to be seen in public right now.
Tavil had followed Ice back to where everyone was, and now he was sitting in Haisyn's lap eating little baby portions of whatever she found that was soft enough. He wasn't sure where Papa went, but his aunty wasn't too bad. She was a lot quieter and less energetic, but not too bad.
Ash was sneaking around through the trees to find the perfect place to set up the last of her fireworks. She had it down with Fauve that she would start, and while everyone was distracted by her fireworks, Inathe would drop some in the fire, and then Fauve would set one off. And if they were about to start telling ghost stories, that was perfect. Just wait for the climax and THEN set it off and scare the pants off of everyone. And maybe they wouldn't get in too much trouble since it was sort of festive and they were having a party anyway.
She wasn't expecting to run into anyone, but then again, she didn't realize how many people were actually out sneaking around in the woods with her...
((Yay for open ended posts? I had to post something... it's been so long...))

G_E grinned and scrambled up from where she sat, grabbing the masque and placing it back in his pouch. Ghost stories! Great! That was the best part of sitting out around campfires.
She settled down on a chair and put her feet out to rest near the fire... ah.... So warm...
She looked around at, "I'm not much of a story-teller."
((*pokes Haisyn* I got a gift for Ashy. Go see... whee ))

Kata wanderd further into the woods, the air grew warmer and the frosty path dissappeared. Well, now what! She glanced around infront of her and then spun on her heals while taking a step back towards the camp, sucsessfully running into Tynan.
She pushed him as she said in a stern whisper, "Why did you sneak up on me. Trying to give me a heart attack?!" Kataio tried to brush past him but he had already hooked his arm around her waist.
"Come now. I was just checking your reaction time." He smirked and pulled her closer. "Now tell me what that trinket it is." Tynan tapped Kata's mask lightly.
"What's it look like fool. Now let me go." She squirmed in his arms making him pull her closer.
"I saw the onther one change you can't tell me these things are nothing." He tipped her head up so they were looking eye to eye. "Now let's go for a little walk and you can tell me everything."
Kata frowned and rolled her eyes. "Fine, but we can't be too long. One or two of them might miss me... Or maybe they won't either way I shouldn't just dissappear." Terawl I let him win again. Well this should be interesting since I know very little about these masks.
She sighed lightly and started walking at his urge. Tynan removed his hand from her waist and reached to hold her hand politely in his. This was going to be an interesting night.

She had waited, but no one had volunteered so far. It made her shrug. "I guess I could start us out..." She waited until the attention was on her, smirking slightly.
"This is a story of a woman in love. And while that might not sound so scary, you have to understand just how terrible that can be." ****************************
He hadnt found her. He had searched the entire village, even sneaking into the houses... but she wasn't there. He scowled, irritated with himself for getting distracted as he had. But there was a reason for the distraction... the girl reminded him of something. A story he had been told when he was just a child.
He scowled, shoving the thought away as he jumped out a window and crossed the clearing to get to the woods. He jerked as he heard a twig snap, stepping behind a tree to watch with something close to amusement as one of the girls from the camp walked past with an armful of fireworks.
Well, well, well... if it wasn't the girl from the last time! He smirked, tapping a cigarette from his box and trailing her.

Kaliska shrugged, "I was never Bed Time Story Lady...I just can't do stories..well, I could...but I think you should go first, Ice. You tell the best."

This was a good spot. It was relatively clear of brush that might catch on fire, and there was a good opening in the trees. It was even in an almost perfect interval from the rest she'd set up! She started to jab at the soft ground with a nearby stick so she could set up the bottle rocket securely, when she got that prickling on the back of her neck.
It was that slightly unpleasant prickling that made your hair stand on end, that you got when you were being watched. That one that got a lot more unpleasant after you realized what it was. That one that made her give off a very quiet mental squeek and spin around to see what it was. The small harsh dot of the cigarette glow was all she saw for a moment, but after a few more shadows took on shape she realized who it was.
Please don't tell anyone I'm here if they findout itwillruintheprank! Her pleading mental babble started to slur together at the end because of how frightened she was and how fast that made her 'speak'. Not afraid of Silva exactly, more afraid that the others would find out what she and Fauve were up to and spoil the surprise. Not to mention get them both in trouble.
((Hope you don't mind her spotting him... was all I could come up with...))
