Welcome to Gaia! ::

Walking up to the front counter, Solice meets a rather busty woman with long black hair and deep blue eyes. Her tank top, if you would call it a tank top, covered the top half of her chest, the bottom half cut into ribbons and exposing the lower half of her chest. She wore a pair of vinyl strapped pants, suspenders hanging from them as more of an accessory than an actual clothing item. She seemed cheery as he approached, but as he turned, her face looked downtrodden.

"You here for a room?" she asked dully, trying not to look him in the face.
"Yes, how much is it a night?"
"For you, 30 American Dollars." she said, her eyes now fixed on the whip lashed to his belt.
Solice noded. "I think I can cover that." he said, digging into the pocket of his baggy pants as he procured the money for the room.
"Your not some kind of freak, are you?" she asked as she pointed to his bag and whip.
"No, not really." he replied, a smirk on his face as he handed her the money.
"That's too bad, I like the freaks. Such imagination..." she swooned as she handed him the key to his room. "4b. The elevator's broken though." she said, and went back to looking at a magazine she had stashed under the table.
Solice turned, a smile plastered on his face as he caught the rail of the stairs and started to climb towards his room.

Solice stepped out into the open air of the night, looking around. "Gotta get a drink. Especially after that Security guard ruined my appetite." he said, looking for a place to go as he wandered the streets. He curled up his whip, lashing it to his belt as he moved past a small crowd of people.

Changing his path back to the hotel, he decided to grab a change of clothes to go swimming in and a towel to dry off with afterwards. Heading in through the front door, the attendant looks up, then sighs as she sees him walk in. "Back again?" she asked in a surly tone, as if she had beat him to the bar first.
"Aye, just to pick something up." he said as he headed up the stairwell. Coming back down several minutes later, he carried a small bag with him. "Back out already? You must like travelling....." she said, but he had already made it out the door before she finished her sentence.

Walking down the strip, he headed to the beach, carrying his change of clothes and a towel inside the bag he had slung over his shoulder.

Letting the waves wash over him for as few more minutes, Solice was able to calm himself. "It's been awhile since I was last on the coast to do this." he said to himself, remembering the start of his journey from Romania. He dunked his hair under water for a minute, getting the rest of his body accustomed more to the water. "Ah yes, the stones. I will need to practice with those if I am to be better than my brother at them." he said, turning his body to head back to land.

He took his time, letting the air dry his skin as he exited the water. Heading up the beach, he went towards the chair he left his bag on, pulling the towel out of it from undreneath his clothes. He dried off his hair, and patted down the rest of his body. He then pulled out the bag containing the elemental stones that he had collected as a family trial. He opened the bag, and took out a few of the stones, examining each one.

He felt the glow and warmth of the Hematite stone. He felt the shock that the Graphite possessed, and wished he had used it on the security guard at the cafe. He quickly banished such thoughts though, and in grabbing the Ruby stone, concentrated on it. His hand began to burn, and a ball of flame rose to envelope his arm. He smirked, taking in its warmth and heat for a moment or two as he dried off his trunks with it. He dared not touch the material, for fear of causing it to incinerate.

Entering the male changing room, Solice walked over to the shower stalls. He made use of the shower to rinse off any excess sand still left on his body, then went over to his stuff to change. Putting on his clothes, his boots clinked as they hit the floor. He put the whipe back on his belt, and then stuck the bag of stones he had been carrying in his pocket. "Just in case..." he said with a smirk, and headed out to take his wet clothes back to the hotel before getting a drink.

He walked back down the same strip he had walked this night, the neon signs flashing to greet him as he passed. He stared up past them into the stars, wondering what his brother was doing. His hand instinctively reached into his pocket, and he grabbed the Graphite stone on accident.

His body surged with electric energy, and an arc of electricity hit one of the benches he had just walked past, catching it on fire. He laughed for a second at his mistake before reaching inside the bag to grab the Sapphire stone. He gripped it, and from the opposite hand, his sweat droplets grew to large beads of water, which soon doused the small fire he had started. "Definately comes in handy." he smirked to himself, though feeling weirded out that he had used his sweat to put out a fire. He put the stone back into his pocket, and this time he closed the bag, making it harder to interact with the stones through the leather.

Kasuma Stepped out from behind a tree.

"Innam BARHAR" The forming tornado slowly dissapated as she whiled her staff in the air, counter motion to the winds.

"Hey wench, I don't like your attitude." Kasuma grinned. She might go overboard, but she was known for protecting friends and family.... She just hoped Onee wasnt paying attention to the amagical currents to closly.
