Hebal giggled gently tilting Mari's head up "You mean you never noticed, those little critters are all over this tree" she giggled pointing to a douxen squirrels watching them curiously from their branches "Oh oh nooo too loud, we need to turn this down" she squealed almost falling out the tree at the sound of Itaka's voice "Umm.. what did he say?"
Seph shook her head pulling Itaka further forward and up a small hill "There, this should be enough distence between us for now... so long as we can be really quiet. If we can't do the unicorn hunting right now we can at least find a fiend of a high challenge level" she whispered removing her stop spell from the area.
Alpha smirked filling the hole up with the leaves Hayate dropped down "No I am not tampering with the airship this time. I am working on something completely different known as a sphere. It's still in early work so thats all you need to know for now, the rest is secret" he winked at them dumping the last of the leaves.
Amane frowned glancing around realising nobody was left in the area "It was no problem but wait for me guys!" she called sprinting to catch up with her friends "I wish I was a fast runner like you two" she complained almost tripping up on a bunch of tree roots sticking out the ground when she finally caught up.
Melanae smiled giving Amane and Zadina a high five "Relax Amane your running is fine and at this speed we'll be there just in time for registration" she reassured her noticing the village come into sight "Say Zadina, how fast do you reckon we are travelling at? 100 or 200 miles an hour maye?"

Yenytai nodded her head rapidly jumping back between her new friends and grabbing one of Gil's and Satoshi's hands "Geeel and Satshe frends! Yenytai help frends" she smiled pulling them around a giant oak tree.
Satoshi laughed reaching over to poke Gil on the arm "So how does this adventure look in comparison to your others? She didn't seem too impressed with your money Geeel, you mustn't be that tastey" she teased back giving the nymph a big smile to show she wasn't trying to hurt him "Thank you very much for the help miss."
Felina nodded sneaking a little further away from the river while they passed the fiend "Yeah I think it's best because I think we might waste too much energy trying to save ourselves from a meteor shower" she whispered reaching up into a tree and pulled off an apple that had been hanging down "Hehe I suppose we can at least have fish for lunch"
Hayate scratched his chin glancing at what would be his next task "Would one of you two be able to lift that wood up here for me?" he requested choosing a different tree to stand in "Spheres are weird things, what are ypu planning to use the spheres for? Just recording and storing information?"

Gil smiled whistling to Enkidu to keep up "Thank you Yenytai your a great friend!" he told her glancing at Satoshi "We'll need to give her something really nice as a reward for helping us since she's really trying" he said to Satoshi "But this adventure doesn't fit in with the others....for one I ain't looking for a sword for once" he chuckled
Oassu smiled "Why can you fish?" he chuckled stroking Felina's tummy before drawing his knives and leaping at an angry dual horn that skidded into view, kicking it in the face and bouncing over it's horns before planting his knives into it's skull bringing it down "That should keep him down but thats a good point I didn't pack any lunch what are we to eat?" he asked Felina relaxing on the Dual Horn's back.
Barbaros shrugged picking up the wood for Hayate "Maybe he wants to spy on the Viera hot tub and capture some footage for those long lonely nights at the steering wheel." he joked.
Mari gasped realising the creatures were watching them "Umm hello there squirrel people" she said quietly "They are very close, I thought they were shy but it was just something about some Viera spying on Itaka and Seph called Sheque, you know her?" he asked leaning back.
Itaka smiled "Sure we can, whenever you want to go we can" he said drinking some water from a flask on his hip "I don't have any problems relaxing a little for now" he said.
Zadina giggled "I'm guessing we're going about 150miles per hour" he said dashing past a Viera brushing her hair making the blast of wind mess up her hair "And you must be a faster runner than me, I'm not good at this kinda thing, just remember you need to stop and not run into the school" he told the others.

Seph smiled back searching around for any signs of a fiend "Nah I am done relaxing for now, this is the most energized I have felt since the operation so I want to engage in some sort of action or combat" she insisted drawing her sword and holding it up in the air "Besides I am feeling pretty lucky today"
Hebal scratched her head whistling at the squirrels encouraging them to come closer "Sheque... Sheque... Sheque. The name rings a bell but its really hard to put a face to her name. Oh wait I think I know her she's a gunner strangely enough, works as a ranger but never settles down in one particular forest. Other than that I don't know a thing about her" she shouted back down all frequencies by accident instead of just to Seph and Itaka.
Alpha laughed shaking his head at Barbaros "Ha ha very funny but I am thinking way bigger things. Firstly not just recording but being able to project the contents of the recording onto a big screen as it is being recorded so it's more like your watching it live. After I can do that I have bigger fish to fry but it would probably bore you" he shrugged picking the wood up for Hayate and dumped it on the strongest tree branch.
Melanae laughed whooshing past another viera for a brief second blowing her skirt up "I knoooooow what you mean don't worry" she answered skidding to a hault almost crashing straight into the school wall "Woah that was almost too close. Anyway I better rush to assembly so I'll speak to you at playtime" she told her friends skipping off after some of her classmates.
Amane giggled waving to Melanae stopping more gracefully by the school gates "See you later Mel" she called turning to Zadina happily "Hehe you need to dispel that haste spell or we'll be zooming around school all day 150 miles per hour is too fast for show and tell" she whispered pulling him into the playground.

Felina grinned patting Oassu's shoulder "Hehe yeah I can fish with or wothout a net. I do have some string and things in my bag I can use to make a fishing rod so if you like I could teach you sometime" she suggested peeking in her bag but decided against searching for food inside when she noticed Cid fast asleep on the top of her things.
Yenytai let out a small squeal of joy swinging her friends arms back and forth "Yenytai goooo frend. Geel and Satshe too. Yennytai hungry" she added listening to her stomach rumble as she skipped along over a fresh pile of leaves.
Satoshi laughed taking out from her bag a piece of dry sushi "Here try this food if your hungry, you should have had the fruit you gave us" she told her cheerfully pulling the creature back a bit so she was no longer pulling them "I meant the style of the adventure not the goal of it but I wonder if this is what it's like to have a small kid"
Hayate laughed tutting at Alpha "Yeah yeah sure thats what you say now but I bet you'll take advantage of it somehow, maybe watch the viera girls live on the sphere" he teased jumping down from the tree pulling some of the vines with him and tying the wood down to the tree so it was now suspended over the hole.

Oassu raised an eyebrow "I'm impressed, when did you learn to fish?" he asked her following her "Fishing is a hard thing to do even harder without tools" he said awestruck as he followed her.
Gil laughed "Eat up Yenytai, we wouldn't want our new friend to go hungry" he said following her along at a leisurely pace. Gil frowned "Hmm that reminds me I didn't pack any food ah well maybe this is what it's like to have a kid, it's kinda fun then." he chuckled.
Itaka smiled "Sure just point the way and I'll come help out" he said dropping down from the branch onto the ground below "Why the sudden burst of energy though?" he asked
Mari shrugged "Well she's a silly billy being mean to Itaka and Seph, those two could like beat anyone together" she said happily joining in Hebal's whistling unaware some of the squirrels were afraid of Sophia.
Barbaros nodded "Your right it probably would bore me" he yawned "Still if you wanna watch your Viera porn films on the wall of our room at least wait until we've gone to sleep first" he said.
Zadina nodded waving after Melanae before dispelling the haste "There we go" he said stretching an sagging visibly "Owwee my legs are really tired from all that running but lets go to class" he said quietly.

Hebal frowned reaching up and offering one of the squirrels a piece of fruit "Aww come on don't be shy, we won't bite" she chirped allowing the creature to cautiously scurry up her hand "Sheque probably sucks at close range combat so as long as she can't aim her gun at Seph and Itaka they should be perfectly fine and theres lots of things you can use to take cover" she agreed.
Seph shrugged doing a small somersault in the air "I have no idea why I am feeling so energetic today, perhaps I have made a significant over night recovery. I'm not fussed why because it feels great" she chuckled kissing Itaka's forehead "Now I bet I could climb that big oak tree way faster than you" she teased indicating to the tree behind them.
Alpha rolled his eyes steping out the shadow caused by the wood suspended over him "As if I would watch that sort of thing there. Thats just bad taste and we don't even have the space" he grumbled examining the trap "So how exactly does this trap work?"
Amane smiled taking the steps through the main entrence "Relax then, once we are through the corridor and into class we'll be sitting down right up to playtime, oh and if you need the bathroom I would suggest you go now most people will already be in class so it's unlikely anyone will come in at the same time as you"

Satoshi smiled pulling out a packet of biscuits from her bag and offered one to Yenytai and Gil "There have one of these to keep you going since I know you don't like fish. I have packed some water and lots of dry food like crackers and biscuits since I didn't have time to find fresh bread" she explained listening to Yenytai ramble on to herself in a strange other language unaware of the meaning behind the conversation.
Felina grinned leading Oassu back towards the river to a nice sunny spot with a little bit of sand "This is going to be really hard to believe but the one who actually taught me to fish was my mum, said if I was going to be silly all the time and wander off I should at least learn some survival skills in case I got lost" she laughed searching around for the thickest stick she could find.
Hayate bit his lip scooping up what was left of the vines and began to spread them accross the hole in different directions forming a grid "It's not finished yet but I already told you what will happen. The pit will be covered then anything that comes this way will fall through releasing the wood which will act as a lid stopping anything escaping. The small grid I am making now acts as something to keep the leaves over the pit"

Gil nodded thanking Satoshi while he munched on the biscuit "So once we get to the unicorns, assuming it's spooked by us we'll need to chase it but best try and slow it down since theres not much chance of catching something that fast." he said keeping an eye on Yenytai talking to herself.
Oassu nodded whistling across the river causing Jenna's head to appear out of the woods followed by Boco's head. "Lunchtime, Felina's gonna catch us some fish" he called to her. Jenna nodded padding Boco forwards before an angry nymph leapt out screetching at the two but a vicious headbutt from Boco sent the nymph flying into the river where she was washed screetching downstream. "Well thats quite nice of your mum, she musta been worried about you wandering off all the time." he said sitting down on the sand as Boco crossed the stream.
Barbaros nodded "And we'll put the bait on top so it'll fall through and be stuck until we come to rescue it" this plan is just ingenious" he said satisfyed as he stretched out on a tree branch.
Mari nodded reaching out to pet the squirrel on Hebal's arm but it shyed away "Hmm well even if she does aim at them Seph can simply stop time and disarm the meanie, its a pity I'm sure people would understand our need if we told them, we don't need to harm them much and if the creatures are as smart as rumours say they should understand too." she sighed.
Itaka laughed "I bet you would too what with the wings and claws to help you" he said frowning as a tree nearby creaked loudly before falling over as a giant behemoth came into view "You want something to train against? Then go kill that" he said getting up and drawing his sword shattering a rock with his armoured arm that the behemoth had punted in their direction.
Zadina blushed "Oh thats right this place only has girl bathrooms" he said looking at the picture of a Viera silhoutte wearing a skirt on the door "Hmm I don't know Amane boys really aren't supposed to go in there" he said shyly.

Seph smiled swishing her sword in front of her "Now thats more like it, something interesting might happen around now" she laughed dodging out the way of a large rock that came crashing towards her "Beats beating you at things like tree climbing" she stuck her tongue out charging up the the behemoth.
Hebal smiled allowing the squirrel to settle next to Ivy on her head "Thats kinda funny, usually animals flock to you... it's ok little squirrel Miss Mari isn't going to hurt you" she reassured the animal stroking her tail "Do you think we should move on? I am getting bored and nothings coming"
Alpha nodded climbing up the tree pulling more leaves out the tree realising they didn't have enough to cover the hole "It's a nice trap but maybe we should keep a look out for a while. If we see a fiend we don't want we can scare it away" he suggested almost dropping the bait through the grid.
Amane giggled poking her head around the bathroom door "Nobody is inside and I will keep watch for you if you like. Would you rather go now or at playtime when all the girls want to go to the bathroom. Plus it's not healthy to not go when you need to" she pointed out holding the door open for him.

Felina laughed settling for a broken tree branch then tied the vines around the end creating her makeshift fishing rod "Unless either of you have a net we are going to have to catch the fish the old fashioned way" she told them dipping her rod under the water "Hehe I suppose I did keep mum on her toes especially when I brought Corella along for some of my adventures. Dad wasn't exactly much better when he was younger"
Satoshi placed the biscuits back in her back searching around until she found a bag filled with fruit "Funny I am surprised these didn't get squished. Here you go Yennytai has something jucier" she chuckled handing her a peach "Yep slow the unicorn down maybe even stop it moving depending on where we find it, give it a little pinprick collect the blood then we can heal it up and go" she agreed.
Yenytai turned around snatching the peach greedily and took a bite out of it "mmm... good. yoonicorns like singing" she told them only picking up small parts of the conversation.
Hayate shook his head at Alpha spreading the leaves out "No thats not a good idea. Fiends aren't completely dumb and they will steer clear once they know something in the area is killing or scaring other fiends" he pointed out making one last check of the trap "Fingers crossed we get something not so good. We can always set the trap up again later on"

Oassu smiled as Felina dropped the line in the water "Don't you need bait?" he said stretching out on the sand "Sounds like you were a cute kid and no wonder Corella likes you if you take her around so much" he said.
Jenna yawned pulling some greens out to feed Boco "What was your dad like then as a kid?" she said pulling a bottle of juice and sipping some before lieing down beside Oassu on the sand and passing the bottle to him as he took a drink.
Gil scratched his chin thinking "Well.....in that case....can you sing Satoshi?" he said bowing his head "I'm pretty tone deaf" he sighed "What about you Yenytai? Can you sing?" he asked her.
Barbaros sighed "So really it's up to pot luck whether we get this horse or not ya?" he sighed patting his bike "Well lets go set some more traps then" he said examining the trap Hayate had set.
Itaka grinned dashing forward overtaking Seph in one bound before leaping up and slashing across the Behemoth's knee moving away to quickly dodge the Behemoth's counterattack with its claw. "Yeah yeah mock all you want I'd still win a pissing contest" he chuckled.
Mari nodded "Yeah we can go if you want but maybe they're scared of Sophia watching the tonberry wave to them causing the squirrels to back further away while Ivy growled at the nearby squirrel unwilling to share.
Zaina nodded quietly stepping towards the door before backing away "But what if theres a girl already in there?" he said nervously.

Amane giggled grabbing hold of Zadina and pushed him into the bathroom "Theres not anyone in their I just checked silly billy, now hurry up or we'll be late for class" she encouraged him keeping watch over the outside door of the bathrooms.
Hebal frowned pulling the squirrel towards Sophia and stretched it's arm out to touch the tonberry's head "Aww see it's not going to kill you on touch alone" she told the critter releasing it before jumping out the tree doing a somersault on that way down "wheeee lets move somewhere less boring" she shouted prancing about below the tree.
Seph shuddered a little moving away from Itaka going for the creatures tail "I don't know what contest you mean by that but it doesn't sound either interesting or pleasent" she answered jumping over the swishing tail and ripping her claws as deep into its back as she could force them.
Alpha groaned thinking over the concept of having to dig another hole "Shouldn't we find somewhere else to set up the other trap? You know and cover more area and it always is pot luck with rare fiends with or without the aid of items and abilities" he grunted rubbing his back.

Yenytai nodded letting out a loud series of shrieks almost forcing Satoshi to cover her ears "Thats Yenytai song... yenutai good singing" she grinned beginning another nymph song about the forest seeking approval.
Satoshi smiled with relief once she was sure the singing had stopped "Thats a very lovely song Yenytai but maybe I should try the singing if we see a unicorn, I'm not that great but I don't think I am as bad as that" she added to Gil in a whisper before beginning a small song about butterflies.
Felina leaned forward sticking her tongue out at Oassu "Actually I just slipped a little bit of bait on the end while I put it all together. All my siblings like me regardless of the dangerous adventures I often got us into. Dad liked to go on adventures travelling all over the world collecting sumons"
Hayate chuckled patting Alpha on the shoulder "You didn't think we were just going to set up one of these traps did you? We'll have almost no chance of catching what we want with just one but your right about an area change" he agreed moving away from the pit

Gil smiled "Thats a nice song Yenytai might I ask where you learned our language so well?" he asked before turning to Satoshi and listening to her song happily.
Oassu raised an eyebrow "He was summoning when he was a kid? Thats pretty impressive" he chuckled drinking some of Jenna's juice before handing it back to her "You've got quite a legacy to live up to." he said
Jenna nodded in agreement sitting up and gazing into the water "I'd hate to have that kinda pressure hanging over me but I don't so everything is ok" she chuckled.
Barbaros nodded moving on "This trapwork is dull though I'd rather shoot the unicorn with my cannon but...guess we can't count on it showing up" he sighed.
Zadina blushed emerging a minute later "Your sure no one saw?" he said glancing from side to side "Ok show me to your class" he said shyly.
Mari giggled watching the squirrel scamper away in terror of the tonberry afterwards before sticking her sword in the tree trunk and dragging it down the tree trunk as she left the branch slowing her decent "Alright where now, did you ever see a unicorn anywhere here in a previous visit?" she asked.
Itaka frowned diving to the side as the Behemoth summoned a meteor in its hand and sent it crashing through the trees where Itaka was standing. Rolling on his land Itaka spun to face the beast before leaping at it's head and slicing through it's upper fangs causing them to drop to the ground while the beast howled in pain. Itaka landed on it's head and gripped it's horns for balance as the Behemoth spun about "It's a guy thing, don't think too much into it but gimme a moment and we'll have some nice behemoth horns" he said sawing into the horns with his sword causing the beast to get even angrier.
