[ Kyle : Training Car -> Stable Car ]
As Kyle left the Training car, making sure to close the door tightly behind him, he looked around at the small gathering. Sora and Joe had just come back from somewhere, and Zeba and Jenny were talking in the middle of the train. Zeba was carrying a large bowl of candy, and seemed more than jovial, despite the loss just half an hour, max, earlier.
I suppose we all express our sorrows in unique ways.
Wistfully smiling toward the group for just a moment, he instead went into Nike's stall, decided to spend some time with his feathery friend. Once the showers were emptied, he'd get one of his own. He wasn't a fan of public showers, but he wouldn't avoid them, either.

[ Seymour : Bamboo Thicket -> Forbidden City ]
"Indeed, but never let your guard down; they likely care little for your allegiance, so long as it provides them with entertainment or challenge," he responded, as calmly and nonchalantly as ever. Soon enough, the duo had entered the city gates, finding themselves surrounded by the ancient orient once again (or for the first time, in Nicholas' case). "Just a little farther; I know they've left the palace, but I'm not sure as to where they went from there."

[ Celia : Halloween Town : Underground Bar (Or what's left of it) ]
The tall blonde entered the bar without hesitation or tension, strolling in through the door and toward the bar. She walked with an air of purpose, her poise inhumanely perfect as she neared her target. The young girl with dark hair and a venomous aura- Alice. As the sapphire-clothed assassin took a seat near the girl, she leaned one elbow, looking her up and down analytically before speaking.
"Got bored with the rogue?" she asked, her voice practically monotone; the question itself was rhetorical, its only purpose being to gauge the "younger" woman's reactions.

[Alice :: HT :: Bar]
Alice's senses perked the moment Celia walked through the door, maybe even before that but the animator was too busy drawing happy faces all over the wood. The bartender looked on with a pained expression as Alice continued to claw away at the wood. There were several roughly fashioned wooden stakes protruding from the wall and some liquor bottles all of which were slowly being eaten away by the poison. A few of the barstools now littered the ground, unable to keep upright with their legs missing.
Alice turned her head slightly to face the newcomer whose monotone voice now flowed easily through the mostly silent bar. Alice leaned her chin on the backside of her hand and kept her facial features blank. "Boredom is an understatement there," she replied, not even questioning Celia's appearance. There were only a few that knew of her teaming up with Cory and it had been those that attacked him in the Gorge.

[ Celia : Halloween Town : Underground Bar (Or what's left of it) ]
"Understandable. He comes off as quite the ignorant buffoon," Celia replied, a brief chuckle escaping her lips as she turned to the bartender, ordering a special. The timid creature went straight to work preparing it. "Perhaps its for the better; he was doomed to fail, regardless."
As the drink was given to the blond, she merely held it, playing with the glass, but never taking a drink. "I come as a messenger from Ajora. He'd like to extend a hand of invitation; he'd have come himself, but he's busy keeping Davy Jones in line, or so he tells me."
The woman dressed in sapphire seemed to roll her eyes at the reason for Ajora's absence, as if she doubted her own master's words.

[Alice :: HT :: Underground Bar]
A slow, thin smile crept up Alice's face as Celia spoke, the animator was half expecting it. Leave it to Ajora. The poison user flexed her fingers before placing her index finger on her lips and tracing it across her lower lip.
"A messenger? He sends a messenger for a scion?! AHAHAHA~" Cúchulainn laughed, which was promptly ignored by Alice. "Let's see if you've overcome that fear... yes~?"
"You can hardly be considered a scion..." The dark haired teen said before responding aloud. "I'm slightly hurt," The animator jested, placing her hand to her chest in mock pain but nevertheless, Alice stood up in one swift motion with her bunny rising up by her. The threads of her gloves rewound themselves around her hand, the small smile still dancing across her pale features only highlight by the flickering light of the bar. "But, very well... I shall accept Ajora's invitation."

[Jenny :: Stable Car]
The time mage smiled, as she reached in and pulled a few more lollipops out. Oh, how she had missed Chupa Chups. She wondered how cavities worked out in the Kingdom Hearts world, and whether eating a whole bowl of candy would effect their dental health. Were there even toothbrushes? No matter. Jenny brushed it aside as she unwrapped a strawberry lollipop and popping it into her mouth.
"Oh hey Kyle, would you like a sweet? Zee brought a whole bunch from the kitchen," Jenny managed to say, without making a fool of herself with the obvious shape of a lolly inflating her left cheek.

[John.:LoD:.Tea Shop]
John looked at the array of different shaped cups in front of him and sighed. What he was in the mood for was a shot of hard liqueur to take him down a notch from the last battle. As he saw that no such opportunity would come, he carefully eyed the glasses to see which one would preserve his manlihood. Then, his eyes shot to it. A beautiful jade decorated cup sprung out at him like a sore thumb. Hope alive! John would now be able to secure his place as a manly man doing manly things, like drinking tea, fighting dragons, and knitting a scarf. Ohhhhh scarf knitting! How he loved it so!
John turned to the middle aged woman that sold the tea and politely and humbly approached her.
"Hello madame," he said calmly, "You wouldn't happen to have any rice wine would you? I here that around these parts of the Middle Kingdom that the rice wine is just exquisite, yes? I was wondering if I could use that cup over there as well. It looked like a mighty fine vessel to hold such a wonderful drink of rice wine if I do say so myself."
"Boy, you sure do know how to finnagle your way into some alcohol. Now if I were you, I'd just get up and walk right out-"
"Ixi, shoosh. Else I'll dehoove you."

[ Celia : Halloween Town : Underground Bar (Or what's left of it) ]
"Oh?" Celia responded, turning to face Alice quickly, a look of slight surprise. She put the drink down, still as full as when she received it. She smirked just a little before standing, her full height towering over Alice, but not in a manner that would be intimidating. "He expected a bit more hesitation. I have to say, though, this makes everything far more civil."
Behind her, a portal opened, tendrils of menacing Darkness inviting the two women in. It led to the Captain's Quarters of the Flying Dutchman, where Ajora was waiting, listening to the organ play, which could just faintly be heard from beyond the portal.
"Right this way," she said, stepping aside and awaiting the Animator's passage.

[ Captain Silver : Dining Car ]
As Zeba left the Dining Car, the Captain went back to tinkering with the train. A few moments later, Dawn entered, and though he gave her a nod, he didn't say anything. That is, until her stomach grumbled loud enough that he heard it over running water. He chuckled.
"Want me ta cook up a quick dinner for ya, lassie?" he asked, looking at her with an amused smile. "It's been a long day- I betcha haven't eaten since lunch."

[ Kyle : Stable Car ]
Kyle twitched his eye somewhat as he'd been noticed from the side. Poking his head out from the stable, he gave a light wave and a reassuring smile. "No thanks, not much of candy person... unless you have skittles."
His face had gone from reassuring to inquisitive in an almost comical fashion, his raised eyebrow and twisted neck done out of humorous instinct. "I do love Skittles. But if you don't have any, I'll just stick to giving Nike some greens before hitting the showers."

[Dawn : Dining Car]
Dawn blushed slightly as Silver responded to her stomach growl. She nodded looking at the cyborg, as she held her half drunk soda in her hands.
"That would be great," she said, "I believe Kyle mentioned something about pizza as I left the Training Car. And I am sure that the others might want some too." Dawn tilted her head to the side as she spoke and offered, "If you want I could help.... though the only pizzas I cook are the frozen kind. Or my tortilla pizzas."

[Kyla: LoD: Tea Shop]
Kyla relaxed and let her mind wander... watching the flower bloom in the heated water. As if it could help her mind guide it's way back in time, back to the events that had passed.
The first time they baorded the train... Narnia... their first encounter with the Giests...the ones who took memories. How Bobbi was drained. When Al was brain washed... the Coral Palace, and the trap laid by Ursula. Saving the Princes and Princeses of Narnia. Meeting Aslan.
She'd never forget Aslan.
But lives were lost, and thus the ice and gold roses were planted by them as testimony to the war they partook in. That glorius sight would be forever etched into her mind- and her scetchbook.
When the question of Kyle and the toher earthlings came up, she finally could see the tea flower had fully bloomed. So she poured from the clear pretty pot into the matching white porcline cup, and took a slow sip.
Once her throat was wet again, she tried to answer some of Amy's questions before they sat down with China's heros.
"Well... from what I know, we were givena choice. We could follow the King, try and figure out the truth he's likely caught the scent of, or continue the original mission we were given at Disney Palace. I think we split up- because we could cover more ground, there's so many of us."
~ Encouraging isn't it? ~
"..yah." she replied to her summon on impulse, not realizing to on looker she seemed to be talkign to herself for that second. Or not?
"..eer...as for Alan and Kichi. I honestly don't know. To be honest, all of you are new faces to me."
With that she turned in the direction of the table where the warriors were seated at. Ignoring Yao's very unfriendly expression, and smiling back at Chen Po, the pictomancer sat down across from them.

[Alice :: HT :: Underground Bar]
"Oh, is that so?" Alice spoke up, her curiosity flying up ahead of her. Several objects in the room teetered upwards: bottles, cups, chairs... they all hung suspended as Alice inclined her head slightly. "We can make this uncivil~"
The animator kept her features blank, only allowing a small smile as all the objects simultaneously dropped back to the ground. They clattered across the floor causing the bartender to jump right as Alice stepped through the portal.
"Did he think that he could possibly take us by force? Heh~
You are far too easily provoked Cúchulainn.

[ Celia : Halloween Town : Underground Bar -> Captain's Quarters ]
Celia chuckled lightly, following Alice into the Corridor without a word. She would like her. Just as her master would like her. The corridor closed behind her, leaving the bar in even more of a mess than before.
----
[ Ajora ; Celia : Port Royal : Flying Dutchman's Captain's Quarters ]
As the two women entered the quarters, the sound of organ playing would have filled their ears more intensely than before. Near the side of the room, Ajora seemed to be playing with a sphere of dark energy, his eyes focused on the coagulation until he noticed their movements. The sphere vanished within moments, and the entity genuinely smiled at the two.
"Alice! Christ, how you've grown!" he remarked, looking her up and down, obviously impressed. Strolling forward, he bowed just lightly, as if like a gentleman, and held out his own hand, as if to take hers in greeting. "Stunning. And the host of CúChulainn, no less. Absolutely delightful. As you likely know, my name is Ajora, and it is a pleasure to see you again."
