Seph leaned forward crossing her legs while she accepted the muffin "Thanks for this, how did you know I was thinking about getting more of these? But I think we are going to go shortly since Hebal is telling Amane's friends to get ready for school and all that" she yawned taking out a carrier bag from her large magic bag and shoved as many uneaten muffins in the bag as possible then put it away.
Amane scratched her head thinking over Zadina's idea "Sure I could try being an elf with pointy ears but I think I heared from mum that elves burn really easily in the sun" she answered looking up at her mum "What do you need me for, are you going to be going already" she asked trying not to cry a little.
Melanae groaned unhappy with Hebal's decision "Aww ok if thats what you really want could you at least give us a few minutes to say bye to Zadina and stuff since he's going to be going away for a long time" she requested putting an arm around Zadina.
Ardie's jaw almost dropped in surprise "Yeah please let us have a few more minutes, we'll be really good and off to get ready to school after we promise" she pleaded patting Sophia on the head.
Hebal sighed hugging Amane "Sorry but we have to keep moving for Oassu and Felina's sake. If we dont hurry up they wont be able to marry and have kids and a family and all that. But trust me you'll like what I want you to see and sure you guys can have a few minutes to say goodbyes" she smiled

Satoshi shrugged twisting her body slightly further around to see what Hebal was doing "Is that all your worrying about? Sometimes I have to wash hot sweaty uniforms that have been worn for up to 4 days on one mission. I think I can handle your armor now I know it's not rusty" she reassured him hoping she wouldnt be washing the armor all journey.
Felina nodded listening to Oassu's heartbeat while she leaned against his chest "I haven't even learned it yet so you better be super careful not to get too hurt... maybe you could do with something to eat though, you seem a little tense" she remarked stroking his sides while she watched Hayate encourage Cid to clap his hands in exchange for a lettuice leaf.

Gil smiled "Its not too hard, if you put it together first you can just fill it with hot soapy water shake it about and it'll give it a clean out but you have to do the helmet separately" he said patting Satoshi on the back and stroking her hips, legs and head.
Oassu smiled as Felina snuggled into him "Sure but you can do life at least right?" he asked reaching out for the last crumpet on his plate "You seem awfully comfy down there though" he chuckled "Shame Hebal is getting us all to move so quick" he said placing the crumpet in his mouth and stroking Felina's hair.
Itaka sighed lifting his hand from under the table to grab a drink somewhat disappointed "Just the way you stared longingly at them" he chuckled "Shame we're going I was having some fun with you here and we'll be slaves soon" he sighed.
Zadina patted Amane "Don't worry Amane I'll be going with you to see whatever your mum wants to show us so we can chill together a bit longer but its been really lovely meeting you all, I promis I'll come back really soon" he told the others sadly "Besides one day we'll be guardians together and we can go everywhere together!" he said brightly to the girls.
Mari sighed "It's such a shame really but we gotta move thanks for taking care of Sophia for me you girls by the way" she said. Sophia spotted her mummy and reached up looking for a pick up. "Hehe you seem very good with her, she's not dangerous she's just a baby" she praised Ardie picking up Sophia and cuddling her as Ivy flew down from her shoulder to say hi to Sophia.

Seph reluctantly nodded pulling Itaka out of his seat with her "Look on the brightside if they get to demanding you can borrow Chobi and we'll sneak off on a flight under the airship" she whispered squeezing Itaka "Nice observation by the way" she grinned.
Hebal smiled picking Amane up and placing her on her shouldes "Cheer up Amane I found you another friend to play with and you'll get to be with us a little longer and I bet Zadina can come back and visit you next time we are in the area. You should be an animal trainer when your older Ardie, I think you would be good at it" she added to Ardie while stroking her child's hair.
Ardie blushed giving Sophia and Zadina a small wave each "Yeah I guess I am not so bad at it thanks miss. But your right about the future. We'll have pleanty of time to travel around when we are older" she agreed waiting for Melanae to say her goodbyes.
Melanae sighed flinging her arms around Zadina and pulled Ardie into the hug with her "Aww I am going to miss you but you better remember all the writing and contact we discussed before. and don't do anything silly because you wanna be back here in one piece for when Amane can summon" she told him releasing them from the hug "We shall see you all later" she added giving Ardie a nod telling her to walk out the room with her.
Amane sighed wavung the girls off before looking down at her mum "You better be showing me something super awesome for rushing us like that but I am glad I get to have a little longer with you guys. And Melanae is right, you have to write or else we are going to send hundreds of smelly socks to you in the mail" she giggled bouncing on her mums shoulders.
Xyleena stood up tilting her head to one side "Oh does that mean all of you will be on your way now? And don't jump around on your mums shoulders like that or you may have an accident" she warned Amane

Felina nodded taking a bite out the crumpet Oassu was holding in his mouth "Of course I can do life so you'll be just fine. I suppose it is a bit of a shame we are moving so quick but I have always wanted to go to a sky city sometime but never had airship access at the right time to go" she replied getting up.
Hayate smiled bowing to Xyleena "Yeah it would appear so but may I say thank you for allowing us to use your house during your stay. I hope that we werent too much of a convenience to you" he told her politely gicing Alpha a curious glance wishing he would hurry up so he could ask him about her.
Satoshi frowned standing up upon noticing everyone else starting to do the same "We are gonna be going walking through the forest again so I think I'll change into something that will be easy to clean and more water proof" she told him changing with her jutsu into a more practical outfit "Shame the sky cities are so cold at this time of year and doesn't yout armor need a polish?"

Oassu chuckled in surprise at Felina for eating his crumpet before finishing it "Hey brighten up this is all for our benefit we need to get there ASAP you know or we'll miss registration for the tournament...when is it actually?" he asked her "Oh and remember to thank Xyleena" he whispered.
Gil sighed as Satoshi left him "Polish? I'm not so vain" he laughed "Why would I need to polish it?" he asked "If it's darker it works as better disguise but it's cold here and they have heat rods attached to the street lamps up there because of just this" he said getting up.
Itaka sighed jumping slightly as he was squeezed giving Seph's butt a playful stroke and squeeze in return "Thats not exactly good behaviour becoming of a slave" he chuckled "I was your slave last night, maybe I'll get you as my slave on night" he growled quietly in her ear.
Mari smiled waving goodbye to the little Viera "They are sure some nice friends you've made Zadina but what does she mean about all the writing and contact?" she asked.
Zadina blushed "Well she wants me to write little photo diaries and send them to her which I totally will and they can send me letters too!" he said skipping excitedly before sadly waving goodbye "I'll miss you all too!" he shouted after the rainbow Viera "I hope their parents are ok with the colours.." he muttered before looking up at Amane "Hehe your really tall up there you know" he said

Seph shrugged glancing over at Mari and Hebal "So long as I am not having to babysit all the little animals I don't see why a slave doesn't deserve a lunch break or time off to gather their thoughts. Plus those two wouldnt be mean enough to scoold us for slacking off if they cant find us" she whispered back seeing Alpha stand up.
Alpha nodded at Hayate but gave Zadina a handshake "Yeah thanks for your hospitality and it was nice having such a long conversation with you miss Xyleena" he told her before turning around to the rest of the group "So... are you all ready to go to Kuenc and don't we have to see people first?"
Xyleena smiled at Alpha and Hayate before bowing back to them "Oh it's no problem really, you were no bother and almost no noise at all. Your chocobos were really nice and friendly too" she answered back cheerfully.
Amane giggled sticking her tongue out at Zadina "And your really short from up here for once. I mean I am taller because of my ears but you seem bigger to me. Their parents should be fine enough, Ardie's will be at least and Mel's will get over it"
Hebal grinned whipping out her camera taking an extremely quick photograph of Zadina "Aww well I think that idea of yours is really really sweet. Heres a photo coming through to start you guys off. Ardie and Melanae are super nice girls and to an extent Ardie reminds me of you Miss Mari"

Felina nodded her head rapidly suddenly remembering about the registration process "Oh yeah the preliminary rounds start today but the registration doesn't officially close until 7pm today so we have maybe 11 hours to be registered for the tournament" she recalled turning to Xyleena "Thank you so much for letting us stay here.
Satoshi snuggled into her coat and pulled Gil closer to her noticing him sigh "Whats up with the odd bit of polish now and then? Nothing wrong with trying to look presentable at times when it is required to look your best. Plus lack of polishing apparently speeds up the rust process" she lectured him.
Hayate leaned in closer to Alpha now he was further away from Xyleena "So what were you two up to this morning and what was the big long friendly conversation about? You two seemed to be really into whatever you were discussing" he whispered stopping to pick his hat up from the table.

Oassu gasped "Well we better burn sky, times a ticking, I didn't think we'd have to fight TODAY" he said shocked before realising where he was and bowing to Xyleena "Oh yes thanks your hospitality is awesome I had a really great time" he said.
Gil gasped surprised as Satoshi snuggled him "Umm....I guess but I've never really thought about it, it doesn't seem so necessary you know my armour is....a very rare metal doesn't rust" he said "But if you think I should look good I'll buy some polish" he said.
Itaka chuckled "Well to be fair we are deliberately avoiding them I think thats worth a yell or two but Ivy seems to be able to take care of herself, maybe she'll let you cook while she sits with the kids" he said
Zadina nodded "Thats good but one day we'll both be really big especially me!" he said poking his thumb at his chest before going over and bowing to Xyleena "Thank you very much Lady Xyleena, your house is lovely and your Grandaughter is awesome" he said.
Mari giggled "You think so? Well she'll turn into a great woman then but leave that photo with Amane so she can remember Zadina with ease" she said happily

Seph smirked thinking over the idea of herself cooking "Just so long as she doesn't expect me to bake or make a fancy meal. I only learned to cook basic dishes that are good for travellers always on the go and not alwas with loads of money. You might break your teeth on one of my scones" she laughed taking Itaka to the hallway guiding him by the arm.
Hebal paused making her way over to Xyleena "It was nice seeing you again so soon mum, remember to send me a copy of Amane's nect report card" she chirped putting one arm arounf her for a hug before spinning back around towards the exit "No no we are going to take a picture properly. When we go outside we are going to take two photos of Amane and Zadina standing together" she decided.
Xyleena smiled giving Hebal a nice hug "Go on get out of here you lot before I start getting to attatched to the lot of you" she told them jokingly giving everyone a wave "Just make sure Amane is back here in 30mins and I will send you that reports and good luck on your journey all" she added sitting back down to finish her breakfast.
Alpha rolled his eyes at Hayate taking one last loomat Xyleena before leaving the room "It was nothing that amazing. I just went to the gym to work out this morning and she was in it at the same time so we just had some general friendly banted about things" he whispered back.
Amane blushed tapping Zadina's shoulder with her foot "I dunno if you'll be tallest because I am going to shoot right up in size and nobody would see it coming but thanks for the compliments and I would love to have a photo standing next to you by the trees"

Felina shook her head rapidly giving Oassu a shoulder rub "Hey hey calm down a little you've got it wrong. The preliminary rounds have started but they go on tomorrow as well, it's just that theres so many people already wanting to compete they are leaving registration up so they can get through the rounds today and tomorrow. Thats at least what Elithana told me" she reassured him.
Satoshi shrugged stroking Gil's back "You don't have to buy polish if you don't want to but if you were say going before a king wouldnt you want to look as presentable as possible. Still it may be too time consuming to do it every few days" she pointed out releasing him from her hug but kept hold of his middle right arm.
Hayate chuckled giving Alpha a pat on the back "Sure, just general banter... about what exactly? You weren't exactly concentrating on other stuff like breakfast and what were you doing to work out in the gym" he questionned suspicious of Alpha's explanation.

Oassu nodded "Oh....ok" he chuckled thinking "They'll be glad to have a hero like Gil joining their competition I'm sure but we should still get a move on" he said
Gil nodded "Well since I'm entering a tournament I suppose I should make an attempt to be presentable and stuff maybe" he said thinking "Just since its a special occasion" he shrugged walking out the front door.
Itaka frowned hanging back a little "Hang on a minute Seph" he said dashing back over to Xyleena "Thanks for the stay Xyleena your beds are really comfy and your food is really good, goodbye!" he said quickly before running over to rejoin Seph "Well....maybe Mari would teach you one or two things about cooking I expect her an Mari will be hanging out a lot anyway" he shrugged.
Mari giggled "Yeah a nice little picture of you two as a wee couple" she teased "But we think you'll like what we have to show you two and we'll make sure Zadina writes often and takes pictures so you can see how big he's getting" she said ruffling Zadina's hair.
Zadina blushed fixing his hair "Hey I'm going to shoot up too!" he insisted "But ok we can have a nice photo by the trees but why two photos Miss Hebal? Also where is it we're actually going?" he said giggling at Amane's bright yellow toes.

Seph nodded quickly giving Xyleena a wave "Yeah thanks for having us ma'am" she called to her before taking Itaka by his armored arm again "You have a point they might just stick together a lot of the day and it's way better than having to work for someone like Alpha. Is there anything you know how to cook?" she asked him scratching an itchy part of her wing.
Hebal smiled tickling Amane's feet "We have somebody who really wants to see Amane and is waiting for a meeting at the edge of the village but if you have two pictures you can have one and Amane can have one silly. We can make a heightchart for Zadina on the airship and take all the measurements in a picture too" she suggested cheerfully.
Amane giggled almost kicking Hebal's side by accident "Hehehe stop it that tickled but your being really mysterious about it you know, you need to tell me more about where we are going" she complained almost staring down at Zadina "A height chart would be pretty funny and I could do one too" she told him ducking down to get out the front door.
Alpha chuckled giving Barbaros a wave seeing that he was on his own "I was concentrating enough to know where our journey is taking us now and it was just like about fitness then she was talking about Amane and the history of the forest, just stuff like that Mr.Suspicious. Plus whats wrong with working out"

Satoshi grinned jumping down the steps of the front porch "I'll tell you what, since I am in such a good mood how about I give your armor a good clean on the airship and then afterwards I'll give you a massage if I am not feeling travel sick, the more things to take my mind off the flight the better" she suggested kicking a rock forward.
Felina nodded stepping outside happy to see the sun shining through the tops of the trees and onto the garden "With sun like that I am surprised the snow hasn't melted yet. But we might have to sneak away from Gil a while. With a hero like Gil around we will have lots of irritating fans and magazine people following us around" she whispered.
Hayate smirked taking one last look at the house "Sorry but we know what your like when it comes to viera so I was just making sure. Nothing is wrong with working out either so long as you are doing something effective in there, what sort of machines were you two going on then"

Gil smiled thinking about it "Sure that sounds absolutely brilliant, you know how much I love your sensual massages anyway" he said kissing her on the head as Enkidu followed up obediently.
Oassu nodded "Sure but they'll probably just be in the stands cheering him on, Satoshi is his biggest fan though I'll bet" he chuckled.
Itaka nodded "I can cook eggs bacon....fry up stuff you know" he shrugged "I'm no master chef, just a few things I cook to get by but we'll probably just need to spend time with them and each other" he said.
Mari nodded "But lets go over by the trees and get you your photos but trust me these are some nice people we're taking you to meet" she reassured Amane steering Zadina under the tree.
Zadina nodded "But you can't measure your ears too! Thats totally cheating!" he warned "And soon I'll be as big as my uncle and I can totally look down on you even if your in a tree!" he cheered.
