Welcome to Gaia! ::

He smirks at her as they slowly begin to revolve in a small circle in the same spot. "Your doing great..see its not so hard." he says smiling wide at her. He looks into her eyes and finds himself thinking about how they ended up coming here together. "So want to try something else or keep with this one?" he says in a semi joking voice. His eys light up and he begins to make their small revolutions take them from one spot to another moving still in a circular motion.

Makies moves were quite complicated to mimick, so Oliver decided to mix his own dance instead of copying someone elses. He learned that copying is not great and can be illegal, buts thats when you copy someone elses writing without asking or telling where you got the source. But, who cares about writing? Dancing was what was on Oliver's mind. He doesn't know dance quite well and gymnastics was a mystery to Oliver.

His soft soothing blue eyes watched Makie dance, her smile, her movements, everything. She seemed so happy at the moment, not like yesterday when she was crying, was hurt, and was down. Today she was happy, which made Oliver happy. With a smile, he closed his eyes and started to mess around with his own dance moves. Even if they are messy, he was having fun as well.

"This is great!!" he cried towards Makie, trying to talk through the music was kind of hard. Especially in a hard mix dance song.

"I'm fine." she said rather swiftly. There was no smile on Ai's face, but no sorrow, no feelings, she was just strict emotionless. Her walk towards the dance floor stopped, as well as the sound from her boots ceased. Why was Ai like this again? Thats right, she was a slayer. No, she IS a slayer, theres no reason for Ai to be someone she never was. She can't even remember if she was even sweet when she was a child in Heaven, the only memories she has was her mother's singing, Mother Marissa giving her bells, and Feena's last smile. But she mostly remembered fire. Yes, fire, how she hates that substance with great passion.

"I'm not uneasy, such flaws will never be seen in me." she said, her gaze changed over to the ceiling, then the floor, then right through. As if she is ashamed of looking at Misty, like she is ashamed to be wearing these clothes, like she she is ashamed of being a slayer. But she is ashamed, she is ashamed that she lied so much. That she never really showed anything, she never showed her true personality, her true feelings, everything.

"These are clothes from the military. By the way, my code name is Hexen, so please call me by that. The name Ai is just stupid" she said in another emotionless voice, as if her soothing voice was stolen. Her enchanting lavender eyes soon gazed over at the microphone, how much she wanted to run up and sing a song to the audience, to her friends. But its seems at this point her dreams were to far from reach.

Oliver stopped dancing as the fast music stopped, he quietly frowned. He didn't reconize this type of music, then his blue crystal eyes looked around. Why was everyone embracing while dancing? He slightly tilted his head at this mystery towards him. That is when he heard a sorry from Makie and then Makie running out of the dance floor and towards the roof.

"Uh, Makie!!! Wait!! Whats the matter!!" he yelled through teh soft music and ran after Makie. Not caring if attracted any attention.

she smiled at Siren, Dinah had lost some of her hyperness but was hyper all the same, only now she was more like Dinah rather than hyper neko girl...she smiled and walk further out of the door way but she stopped waiting for Maru...

"come one Maru, you will freeze if you stand by the door much longer..."

She laughed and then turned back to facing Siren, Her mismatched eyes where looking aournd at everyone seeing who she knew and who she didn't her cat ears and tail twitching in excitement, this was her first ever dance, for she had never been anywhere the would have a dance before...she smoothed on side of her skirt down a little and waited for Maru, She was stood about half way between Siren and Maru...

'She sure doesn't look fine...' Misty retorted in her mind. Of course, she wouldn't dare start an arguement up out here. However, she did not dare go close to Sakura, not now at least. She was still shocked by her friends appearance to move. Also, the simple fact that she wasn't very welcoming at the moment.

"Every one has flaws Sakura, you cannot deny that fact." Misty said both coldly and straight foward. "If you deny not having flaws, then that... That itself is a flaw." Any way you look at that you had to agree with those statements. She herself tried to disagree with that when she was little. Misty wanted to be strong and save people. She wanted to be like the people you see on tv that are really quiet, cold, but the coolest characters ever! Eventually, Misty realized her own flaws and was able to move on.

"No, I cannot accept that request Ai. As I know you are truly a caring person, not this 'Hexen' that stands before me." Her deep blue eyes stared sharply into her friend's lavender eyes. "Therefore you shall remain Sakura Ai Wonderland in my presence."

What she said was so simple, yet the dark haired girl meant every single word. Sure, she can accept the fact that Hexen was a slayer, but she cannot picture Sakura and the emotionless slayer before her was the same person. She would not picture it and cannot picture it. Yes, denying the fact was useless, but the difference between the two personalities was amazingly significant.

"I know that what your wearing and whatever mission you might be taking might make you a slayer, but... That doesn't mean you can't have a night of fun with your friends." Misty replied nodding her head, her long midnight blue hair flying every where in the wind. "Nothing can change who you are inside... Nothing..."

The words echoed in her own mind. It gave her painful memories, but the tall girl quickly locked them away in the back of her mind. She didn't like remembering anything about her past. It gave her the chills just thinking about it, as her childhood was nothing to be proud of.

Sakura is fine, she just needs to train more, and that means for her to get her tough act up on. The military only takes people who act like tough dogs, thats why she is acting this act. She needs to beat Iredezria, she needs to protect herself, and most of all, she needs to protect her friends. If her friends ever came tangled up in her problems and get them selves injured, or worse, get killed. She'll truelly be broken hearted and a mute for the rest of her life.

Before she came to Ria, she barely had friends. And now, she feels like miss popularity, the creme of the crop, almost like a princess. For once, she felt like an angel in Ria, thats why she doesn't want to leave. But to protect her friends, then that she shall have to do, even if she had to give up her life for it, she will. But what Ai mostly wanted to do, was to say goodbye to everyone she cared and loved for. But why was she acting so tough, after all? Is it all an act? Or not? This she is confused about.

"...I know Misty, i know. Nothing can change me in the inside..." she paused in the middle of her sentence, part of the reason was she was having trouble upon what to say to her blue-headed friend. She felt like the movie of the week, she felt like she was on the spot light and she was about to choke off the stage. Soon her lavender eyes gently graced down to the floor, her hands trembling together. She felt pathetic and stupid for being dressed like this and acting this way.

No. She is stupid and hates it. She hates it with passion. Soon, she could feel tears filling her eyes, but she quickly denied them. Like she did when she denied her flaws. Soon, she swiftly moved her face to the side, letting her hair cover up her face from Misty's presence. But why was she feeling these mixed feelings for? Why, she doesn't even understand them.Was there something she needs to stay in Ria for? Probably not, she would just be in the way, anyways.

"You know what!?!! Maybe i am denying my flaws!! But maybe i have a reason!!! Yes, I am stupid, hopeless, useless, aloof, gullible. Am i soo foolish?!! I am i soo foolish that i can't even get honor from my friends!?! Not even respect!!!" she cried out at Misty in a loud rage. Then Ai realized what she did, she yelled at someone. At a friend, and she never yells.

"...Sorry..." she said softly, as her lavender eyes continued to trace the ground some more.

He looks at her and smiles widely. "Your silly, its up to you if you want to learn a new dance or not, I was just messing with you a little" he says with a wink. The still circle and spin slowly in a rythmic motion that seems to keep pace with the music. Kai smiles as he thinks to himself

~Man this was a good idea...~ He smiles all the more.

Scytheress rested her hand on his shoulder and in her other hand held his. She smiled slightly as the music started and as they began to dance Scytheress's unease disappeared. Dancing was much like fighting, following the others moves with your own and it was applying her own instincts to the current situation that allowed her to move with Dante and not falter once. She was at a bit of a loss for words though, not that she ever had much to say anyway.

Darius gentley gripped Lily's hand and put his other hand on her shoulder. His heart was beating now: Could he do it? Would he be able to keep the night as special as it was? He continued to ask these questions in his head.

He then began the most nerve wraking moment of the entire night, he began to dance a slow gentle dance, he didn't even know how to classify it, but he began to dance.
