Welcome to Gaia! ::

[Joe: Port Royal: Clearing]

"Off, huh?" He sighed. Figures something was wrong with this place...

The scream made him snap to attention, and James pointing out Noelle falling made his heart leap. S***!

It was on pure instinct that Joe was dashing forward towards Noelle and Fenrir, using wind to cushion any falling summons or people by pushing air up from the ground in a type of weak bayamo.

"S*** s*** s*** please be okay please be okay," the male said to himself as he dashed to where Noelle and Fenrir should've landed.

[Jenny :: Dining Car -> Clearing]

A screaming pierced through the air that made Jenny run faster towards the door. The flutist happened to exit the train just as Fenrir took a strong leap into the air. Jenny had to squint in order to distinguish the person that Fenrir had caught. Seemed like a smaller figure, even smaller after taking into consideration the distance. A flash of blonde... green- NOELLE!

Jenny broke into a run, following close behind Joe and Kyle though she wasn't nearly as fast as the other two males. "Noelle!" Jenny half-shouted, half-sighed with relief. She's back!

[ Ajora ; Celia ; Lettie : Caribbean : Davy's Quarters ]

Ajora sat at the giant organ, looking at the keys thoughtfully- every now and then, he would play a few keys together that sounded somewhat reminiscent of the first keys of a classical piece, but then he would stop, simply sliding his fingers along the rows of keys. He seemed deep in thought, though every once in awhile he'd scowl.

Celia and Lettie leaned their backs against the walls opposite one another, their arms crossed and heads down, waiting for commands. They had, thus far, completed their tasks.

Finally, Ajora sighed, played the well-known first eight notes of Beethoven's Fifth Symphony and, simultaneously, sent out a small pulse of Darkness. It served to call the other Replicas on the ship to the Captain's Quarters. It was time to talk strategy... if they could even comprehend it.

{James : Port Royal : Clearing}

James followed after Kyle and Joe, moving to the spot where Fenrir was going to land, he kept tracking them as they descended. He watched as they landed and Noelle immediately pushed off with a shout only to land on the ground, obviously she was exhausted. The corsair knelt down next to her, so tempted to pull her into a hug, however he refrained in case she was injured.

"Noelle... can you hear me?" He said, concern evident in his voice. "You're safe now... you're back with us."

'Thank you Fenrir...'

'Not a problem...'

The Lunar wolf replied and then vanished, returning to the corsair.

{Kuro Oni : The Flying Dutchman : Davy's Quarters}

The Nightmare Dreadnought had been standing on the deck, just enjoying the feeling of the rain as it fell upon the sea. His eyes were closed until he felt the pulses of darkness coming from Ajora's playing. His eyes opened, only to roll upwards, exposing only the whites of his eyes as he turned. His tattered coat tails whipped in the wind as he made his way back inside of the ship and towards the organ where the dark pulses were coming from. He walked in, silent as he walked over to one of the walls and leaned his back against it.

"What's this about?" He asked with a snarl on his face, though it soon vanished, replaced by a face that seemed to hold no expression whatsoever.

[Azrael: TFD: Davy's Quarters]

Az was lounging against Bal-hur on the deck of the Dutchman, head on the unversed's stomach as it casually stroked his head and arm. Oh, their hair was mussed, lips swollen, skin shiny with sweat...

"Good times." Azrael said, before feeling that pulse of darkness.

"Ah, great, finally something to do." he said as he got up, brushing himself off and blowing a kiss at his creation, which got up to follow him like a puppy, minus the panting.

Arriving in the room, the male leaned against Bal-hur, who leaned against the wall, and had the unversed wrap his arm around in. "What's up? Do we finally get to do something besides sit here on this nasty ship?"

[Dawn : Port Royal : Clearing]

Dawn was probably the last to arrive among the group that had gathered around Noelle. She couldn't get very close cause there were too many people: James, Joe, Kyle and Jenny. Dawn felt a wave of relieve, like the others, that the girl was safe and back with them. But Noelle looked absolutely exhausted based on how she was on the ground, even after Sora had cast a healing spell on her.

"Guys," Dawn called from behind everyone, "Do you think we should back up? Give the Noelle some air."

[Port Royal ~ Clearing]

Noelle looked at James as he came into focus, an expression of shock on her face. He was real, right? He wasn't just some dream, or illusion? Maybe there was no flying-furry thing that saved her and she really had just hit the ground. Things were just a little weird and happening way too fast. First there was the escape, then falling out of the sky, and now she was back with the others? That couldn't be right. She suddenly felt someone bothering her, and looked to find Joe. She gave him an equally confused look.

'They are real human. You aren't dreaming.' Titan said, sounding as surprised as she felt.

The agromancer was still disbelieving. She lifted a trembling hand and placed it on James' arm, pinching the fabric of his coat in her grasp. Then she knew--it really was him.

"J . . . James? Joe?" She panted, staring up at her friends as a flood of emotions rocked her.

She started to laugh. It was a little broken at first as she tried to catch her breath, but was soon soft, steady laughter. Noelle covered her eyes with the back of her other arm, feeling like she was losing her grip. Her hand remained clinging to James' coat so she knew it wouldn't disappear. If it did, she really would lose it. Before long her laughter became a little strained, like she was resisting the urge to cry. The girl settled after a moment and moved her arm, looking up at everyone. She couldn't resist smiling.

"I just fell from the sky."
