Welcome to Gaia! ::

Nisha look at Theodore as he said that he was her friend, she smiled at him, but she was a little confused by how easily this all progress. "Well it is nice to know I have another friend, and that we are teammate is also pretty awesome as well". Nisha walked with Theodore as they left the ramen place heading back to the warehouse that they were staying in and working on for the current mission, as they were walking back she would notice Theodore look at her from time to time and smiled, to which she would smile back at him. "I don't know maybe upstairs where the rooms are, he might be sleeping". Nisha said as she heading into the warehouse that was strangely quiet at the moment and felt off, she moved into the building looking around for Haikyo, Theodore's commit about not seeing Haikyo getting to her a little, wondering what had happen.

While looking around the main living area Nisha noticed the note left behind by Haikyo and called out to Theodore to come back, as she read though the letter and felt a little upset about how this had played out, she didn't like how the team seems to have just left without more information then just one note, from what she knew about things they were meant to keep together for a mission, but that seems to have changed. "Theodore where are you?, get back here I found a note from Haikyo, this is really weird we may need to get back to the village, after doing this mission". Nisha said calling out loudly to him, as she put the letter aside as she more to look for Theodore. Unlike the normal Nisha's aura it was a little colder at the moment, she had been upset by the recent event and was feeling unpleasant about how things were going, if she had been alone it might not have been an issue, but Nisha had after weeks of traveling with them and actually beginning to work with Haikyo more, she was beginning to open herself up to others more.

Nisha was still a little upset about the events that had played out, it was going fine a few issues due to Nisha not being used to being in a team, but they had been happy after the success of the last mission, and with how things were going, but this was rubbing her the wrong way it felt off to her, as Theodore appeared she jumped a little as he startled her. "Yeah Haikyo mentions it, we can go shopping tomorrow it is the middle of the night". Nisha said coldly as she is still working though her feelings at the moment, she looked at Theodore. "It will have to wait until after we do the other missions we already have, we can explore it later, report it to the mission office and go shopping first. As she followed him as he ran off out to the garden again in the middle of the night, Nisha walked over after Theodore had opened the hatch, she pushed it closed and looked at him.

"We will deal with this after the other missions OK, it is way to late to be dealing with this now". Nisha and Theodore headed back inside Theodore closing the door to the garden as they got back inside, Nisha went around the building making sure it was locked up then joining up with Theodore again. "Well as for tonight we need to rest it is the middle of the night already, there are three bedrooms upstairs, and there are a few other rooms we could use, also do you have your sleeping gear we aren't getting the futons until tomorrow, so sleeping bag tonight". Nisha said while talking to Theodore, and nods in a agreement with his idea of making a plan in the morning on what they should do next.

After everything was said and done Theodore ended up sleeping in the main room they had been using it had some of the luggage from trip from Aren still in it, and a bunch of the equipment that they had been using in the cleaning and doing the general work around the building, because it opened onto the deck and lead into the backyard that had the hatch in it, also due to it having all the equipment the room was the most comfortable at the moment, the warehouse was a huge space and rather cold during the night, the entrance room was the same size, but had a bunch of benched in it was it was a little smaller then the break room, and was a little colder then the other room due to the stairs that lead into the basement, while the second floor had no furniture but had the bedrooms, as well as the washroom, the combined kitchen dinning area, and a living room that lead onto the main deck on the second floor.

Nisha after setting up herself a bed using her sleeping bag and a pillow in the cupboard under the stair coming out to check on Theodore who had pasted out next to some boxes, Nisha noticing he didn't have a sleeping bag she checked around the luggage until finding a blanket to put over him and putting another pillow near his head and then slide it in under him before going to sleep in the cupboard. Nisha had dreamed about Aren again an how she could have preformed better during the mission, and what she could have done with better planning or more information, and even how close she came to dying while in the tunnel filled with water as she was on her last breath dragging Shun, and the treasure she had collected from all the different items around the room, part of her was sure she wouldn't make it out of the tunnel and could feel her death coming the cold of the water soaking right to the core leaving her cold for a few days after leaving the water, and the darkness that had enveloped her making her lose her grip on the world around her as she lost her sight the tool that she used the most, with the cold and darkness filling her she trembled a little as she slept.

"S͟h͠h,̧ şhh, it͠ ̀is ҉o͏k͝, ̴yo҉u̡r͡ out of̡ t͏h͏e͜ c̵ol͝ḑ ͘a̢n̡d ̡d͟a̧rkne͘şs̴, an̴d ̧y̡ou͝r̵ not̴ al̛on҉e̡ an̨ym͘or̕e ͝l̨i̶tt̛l͢e̡ ͠o͡ne". Kamala said softly into the mind of Nisha trying to calm a girl down from the nightmare that had began to gripped her mind with the darkness and cold of the tunnel that had almost killed Nisha and her lead to the room where Kamala was being kept, Kamala's spirit essences which were blue and red wisps that seemed to float and brush around Nisha stroking her hair lightly trying to comfort Nisha as she sleeps. Nisha woke up the next morning a still a little tired from the night from before and walked out of the cupboard grabbing her bag, she was only wearing her dress from the night from before and then entered the cupboard again to get changed into a new outfit, this time rather then the fill length dress and stockings, it was a short sleeve white and green tank top and a pair of black shin length ninja issue pants designed for ease of moment, it was clear she was getting ready to do the work today.

Nisha headed out into the room and then onto the deck and looked at Theodore as he did his training, as she was about to call out to him a knock came from one of the doors on the warehouse that Nisha ran off to answer as she got it open she was greeted by a couple of guys that were dropping off the materials from the repairing of the flooring and the last of the basic repairs that Nisha and Theodore would be finishing, as well as the plumber that was going to be checking the pipe and turning on the water if everything was in order, as they moved the supplies into the warehouse itself and the plumber began checking the pipes around the warehouse making sure nothing was broken before he moved inside checking the washroom and the kitchen upstarts, and the second wash area in the main basement. "OK so Theodore it look like the last of the supplies are here so we can finish off the work on the warehouse today, and then we can got get some basic equipment for in the house itself so tonight we can sleep better then last night, but once all the is done we can decide what to do with the hatch or head back to the village and see if they want us to do anything". Nisha said more relaxed from last night and seemed to be happy again.

Nisha spoke with the plumber for a little, telling him that the building hasn't been in use for a few years and she needed him to connect the water again and to check the pipes to see if they needed repair or cleaning, and to turn on the hot water, before letting him head off to go about this work, after speaking with him Nisha moved out to the front of the building to opened up the large side doors of the warehouse to let the people that were dropping off the new floor boards and the different tools and materials that they had ordered the other day from the hardware store, including a bunch of iron sand Nisha had ordered for herself. As Theodore made his way around to the front of the building and then began moving the wood around the building getting it into different places so it would be easier to replace the rotted and damaged boards and get the floor repaired quickly, while working on the floor boards letting his mind wonder, Nisha looked over at him and noticed that he seemed to be working with his mind somewhere else and looked a little down from last night, with the excitement of last night both from the conflict and the hatch that had been found, and seemed to have been been replaced with reflection on something else.

Nisha looked at Theodore wondering what he was thinking about and made a note to ask him once they had finished up between this job and the next while they have some time to speak without activity getting in the way of conversation between the two of them, Nisha focused on the work in front of her mainly replacing the broken flooring around the warehouse with Theodore, she used on of the crowbars that had purchased tom the hardware store to pry up one of the large floor mats in to to get it out of the way exposing support structure and the foundation layer under them so that she could slide one of the new floor mats into place to replace it, before standing up to check the area around them, and signed a little bit as she looked at the surrounding flooring and saw the noticeable differences in the mats, but she knew that after a little use the mats would soon match one another eventually.

After prying up and replacing a couple of the boards and using a rubber mallet to get the new boards in place without damaging them Nisha slumped back a little tire only for her stomach grumble as she rests, with that Nisha's mind caught up with her body and she noticed the hunger that she had been ignoring since she had woken up, with the events of last night it had skipped her mind with the early arrival of the supplies they had order for the repairs and will want to have on hand in order to keep the building in sharp going forward, Nisha pulled herself up and onto her feet heading over to Theodore. "Hey Theo lets got get some breakfast or brunch soon while at it we can talk about some of the stuff we will need for the base, and what we should do next". Nisha said standing near Theodore as he was working on one of the floor panels and had even fit up part of the walls in the warehouse.

While Nisha and Theodore were working on the replacing the broken and rotted flooring, the plumber that had been checking the different pipes of the building, the first thing she went over was the fixtures of the wet areas checking them to be water sound, and the pipes leading to them checking for damage and if any of them would need replacing, before he would turning on the water to the building again, and after working his way around the inside of the house and only finding some rust on some of the pipes and a few crack here and there that would need to be replaced eventually, but that aside most of the plumbing of the warehouse seemed to be in working order strangely but would likely also need to be flushed after replacing the cracked pipes to remove any grime or dirt that have built up in the pipes, after making a note of all the work he came back to Nisha and asked if she would like to him to get started on the work, to which she agreed giving him a down payment so he would be able to start right away to which he nods and happily gets his tools ready.

With most of the work done some far, the warehouse area and saw just how much work the two of them had done and all of the rotted and broken flooring had been replaced, the walls repaired and repainted, the living area upstairs and in the main living areas downstairs now cleaned , all that was to left was some clean up in the warehouse, but that could be done a little later. As she was looking at Theodore her stomach rumbled showing that she was hungry, and seemed to be a little embarrassed. "That good we should get something to eat maybe talk a little about the different things that the base would need and what to get for exploring the hatch". Nisha said with a smile as she got her bag and some other stuff before heading off with Theodore to a place to have brunch and fuel up before heading off to get the last of the equipment needed in order to make the warehouse a real base.

"I will take the same, but with peach tea as the drink". Nisha made her order and sat with Theodore, and then let out a breath as she looked him over as he was speaking about tea, Nisha smiled a little listening to him, as he seemed to to be a little nervous about something. "Well it should be good, but be careful about falling asleep". Nisha said lightly before laughing a little before she looked away before moving onto another topic. "So we have one mission left to do on the warehouse and then it is finished which it to get some furniture and outfit the building for the team to use when needed, so we are going to need to get a set of white ware, a bunch of bedding, then a bunch of other stuff needed for day to day, what can you think of that we would need for the base?". Nisha asked looking at Theodore waiting for his input on what they should get to make the warehouse a more livable place to use as they base going forward, the food arrived at this moment and Nisha started on the meal.

Nisha spoke up after eating some of her food and spoke about what they should do after the mission was done. "After this mission we have somethings we could potentially do, which would be to go explore that hatch near the warehouse, also we could go back to the village at some point and see our family or see if we have more team members to join with, spend time with our family before taking on new missions". Nisha said looking a Theodore wanting to get his feedback on what they should do after the mission was over.

Nisha looked over Theodore as he spoke on his family and what he wanted to do going forward and nodded with him, it sounds like it was going to be a tough time for him going forward, but Nisha didn't really have a way to relate to Theodore as she had never dealt with anything similar. "Well it sound like we should finish off this mission then maybe report it to mission office take some time back home and spend sometime with our family, and then get ready for upcoming missions, like exploring that underground area or maybe something else will come up". Nisha said to Theodore as they were talking about some of the possible plans for the future and maybe returning to the village for a little of time. "It does sound like you really love you grandmother and it should be pretty interesting to see your sister again too.

As the discussion moved onto the items that would be needed to finish the last part of the mission, Nisha was taking notes down on the items that Theodore mention and then added her own items as she wrote the items down, and then looked over the long list that the two of them had made then thought about it for a little bit. "We need to cut the total list down a little and focus it as we don't have the money to get everything". Nisha said as she crossed out some of the items first, mainly chairs, dressers and tables, as they weren't needed right away but could be added later, the big thing is home ware mainly. "Well focusing, the big things we should get is some futons around four to ten, so the warehouse can handle a least two teams easily, then some kitchen equipment like some utensils, plates, bowls and cups, then some cookware like cutting boards and knifes, pots, pans, baking dishes and some cooking utensils, then a bunches of pillows and stuff for seating around the warehouse, an also some storage stuff like you mention but more shelves and boxes that can be put anywhere, is there anything that you really think we should get that I have left out that we should get?". She said as she was playing with the last of her food that she hadn't eaten yet, as she was looking over the list she had made and was looking Theodore if he wanted to add anything.

Nisha finished up the last of her meal as she listened to Theodore mentioning that adding some more storage for weapons and armour, Nisha added them to the list she was writing as she continued playing with the last of the meal and the drink she had left over from brunch. "Well that should be everything we really needed for the base to be setup so we just need to go buy them, and with the larger items, buy them and then get them delivered, while we are at it you can look into items you may want to get later". Nisha got up leaving her utensils on the bowl as she finished her drink as they headed off into the street and headed toward the shopping section of town again for the last of the items needed for the mission.

Looking at Theodore Nisha took a moment to think before replying to his question. "Hmm, I am not really sure I just wasn't that hungry I guess, or maybe it was just a bit too much from me in the morning, I am normally not much of a big eater in the mornings, hey this is our first time eating a breakfast together". Nisha said as she though about her normal meals and weren't that big, and then noticed that this was the first time they the two of them had eaten breakfast together and even noticed that the two of them seemed to be making a fairly alright team.

With the two of them heading off, Nisha took a sidetrack back to the warehouse and picked up the wheelbarrow they had brought the other day before making it back to the same shipping area stopping by the household goods store they had visited yesterday to get the cleaning products, this time the goal was kitchen and bathroom ware and utensils for the base, as well as some of the storage items, mainly smell bins and containers, for the larger items they would need to go to a larger storage items and the rest of the furniture they would need to go to a furniture store.
