Alpha groaned hearing another knock on the door almost the moment he sat down again "We were just thinking of going out. Would be nice to actually see this city before I leave it rather than just hang around the ship. Ah well Boco has at least got a friend to play with later" he mumbled hearing Chobi before he unlocked the door.
Seph yawned allowing Chobi to headbutt the door open the moment it had been unlocked "Evening all, said you wanted to see us so we checked out the cabin. Means your stuck with us until we leave" she greeted them hopping off her pet's back.
Hebal snickered glancing over at Aechotiau who waved at them noticing he was being watched "Hehe Garif look so silly in all fancy clothes don't ya think? Bet he feels right out of place and Seph totally would have invited Itaka as her plus one guest" she whispered letting out a sigh of relief as the cake landed on a round table located near a bunch of wealthy gria "The cake has landed... lets go before that other person tries to take the marshmallow on the top!" she gasped putting Zadina down.

Satoshi shrugged leaning back "Well theres no general rule saying you aren't allowed in. Since international ninja markets like that one are self goverened any ninja from any village are allowed in but its generally good manners not to show it off too much to outsiders" she tried to explain knowing the song was at least halfway through.
Felina sighed and nodded her head "Sure it would be a challenge and you might find something just as interesting or better by accident in her bag since I have no idea just how it works. Though if you get caught... Seph can be pretty scary when made mad don't you think?"

Gil nodded "That's alright then besides it's nice to know that it's something important means it means a little more seeing as you shared it with me" he said smiling as he twirled Satoshi "Especially since it's a ninja secret but I doubt I'd be allowed in on my own" he said.
Oassu nodded "Yeah she is part demon after all, she has a furious temper too" he said recalling her first fight with Itaka "Itaka better pray he doesn't upset her, I wouldn't really like to face those claws or anything like that" he said shivering.
Itaka smiled as he entered "Hey Barbaros you're here already!" he said happily going over to the couch "The airship is looking nice Alpha money well spent I think" he said sitting down in the space Barbaros made for them while Itaka placed their travel bags down beside the couch "So whats this surprise you had in store for us?" he asked.
Zadina waved back "I don't know maybe it's just the style maybe they have their own ideas about what formalwear is that complements those masks" he said spying the cake "Hehe you'll need to be quick Miss Hebal though really Sir Gil should get the best slice as his prize I think" he said following Hebal to the cake.

"Hang on a minute, just give me a moment to get Chobi settled and then tell us what the big surprise is" Seph told them as she lead her chocobo into the stable glad that the room layout of the airship hadn't been altered. "Evenin' Jenna" she greeted in the stable petting Boco before allowing Chobi to come forward and say hello.
Alpha nodded following Seph to the tables with his gaeze briefly "Well I suppose it will stop me having to repeat myself. The fact I managed to do everyones rooms up real nice was part of the first surprise so can go take a look in a moment. The second one will take a little more explaining and has gone walk about. So... how come you two aren't at the festival? Could at least give your invites to someone else" he hinted thinking someone on the ship would want them.
Hebal however did not hear Zadina for she was already way ahead of him "Ta da, I got it! I'm so awesome and worth it!" she giggled holding up the marshmallow in the air she had just peeled off the top until Zadina caught up. And now since I have the best bit, you can pick the first slice but I recommend that one as its the biggest" she pointed as she bounced happily on the spot

Felina smiled and nodded her head "Yeah they could probably kill you if she tried to which look at it this way, should something go pear shaped it will be her doing the dumping to avoid injury" she joked patting Oassu's shoulder. "Though I have noticed not all demons seem to have really bad tempers, I mean I don't remember seeing Alpha really lose it before. Like going nuts angry but thats probably for the best"
Satoshi shook her head secretly wishing Gil wasn't wearing such cold armour "Nope you wouldn't get in by yourself unless you offered a huge amount of money for the doormen to conveniently forget you came by depending on who you encounter. That or used a lot of force and from then on fought your way through the market place hoping someone will serve you"

Oassu nodded "But isn't his full demon form a little scary or intimidating to you?" he asked "It's like something from a child's story if you ask me, then again those stories are made from people who remember the demon wars so maybe there's a grain of truth in them" he pondered scratching his chin.
Gil smiled "While I probably could manage the second option that's not the kind of legacy I want to leave" he said twirling with Satoshi as the song came to an end "Still lets go see Hebal and Zadina now" he said pausing to politely applaud the band along with the other dancers.
Jenna nodded her head at Seph "Hey Seph I trust you had a good time in the city?" she asked while Boco kwehhed a greeting to Chobi happy to see her again "My time was quite profitable" she chuckled getting some food for Boco .
Itaka frowned lowering his voice so Seph didn't hear "Well I didn't get an invite since I never made the finals and Seph was....feeling a bit sore about her loss so didn't want to go" he said quietly "Still if you feel up to it go ahead and ask for an invite if you dare" he said turning back to Barbaros "So you had fun after I left you I take it?" he asked.
Barbaros shrugged "Not much of my kinda entertainment on this floatin place, need some pools or somethin up ere no enough roads up here" he sighed wishing he could've ridden his bike a bit in the city.
Zadina giggled taking a little smaller bit than the one Hebal suggested "That one would probably make me sick if I ate it I'll be happy with this little bit thought they probably should've put more than one marshmallow on the yummy looking cake" he said also applauding the band politely as more people started to move to the cake.

Hebal paused about to grab the biggest slice but quickly chose a smaller piece spotting another cake covered in icing heading their way "On second thoughts... I think I'll have a little bit of both the cakes. And that has yummy chocolate stuff inside, with marshmallows inside too then everyone would get too sick for proper slice" she mumbled picking away at the food not wanting to leave until she had some of the other.
Seph shrugged fetching the food bucket for each Chocobo. "It wasn't bad I guess, not profitable enough for sure but at least Chobi had the time of her life. It's not everyday she's able to fly about the towns and cities so freely. She even crashed the racetrack one day" she laughed avoiding mentioning the tournament.
Alpha snickered shaking his head slightly "Well I highly doubt your bike thing is ever going to hit it off in the sky cities like Kunec. And perhaps best not to get Seph in one of her little moods. So what ya been up to instead or is it something I don't need to know because you've been up to funny business"

Satoshi smiled applauding the band while she kissed Gil once again "Mmmhmm the last thing you would want is every ninja on the planet trying to kill you the moment your sword isn't in your hands or slept. But your fine so no need to think about anything like that... now lets get you a nice piece of cake or at least some for me" she grinned spotting the delicious icing.
Felina hesitated then gave Oassu a second nod "Yes he is a little intimidating in his full demon form but at least I can trust him not to fly off into a berserk destructive state from getting angry. But not all demons apparently looked scary. Apparently some were really really pretty demons that used to lure people to their deaths with their singing and other methods. Think those ones were called sirens according to one of my old story books"

Gil nodded linking arms with Satoshi as they moved towards the cake "Well that would be a bit of an extreme wouldn't it?" he said "Nevermind not like I'm planning on it" he said as he approached Heal and Zadina "It's good to see you two here" he said bowing politely to Zadina seeing he was in royal robes.
Zadina blushed "Oh you don't need to address me that way Sir" he said shaking his head and nibbling on his cake "It's a pleasure to see you too Sir Gilgamesh and Miss Satoshi" he said bowing as well "me and miss Hebal were just enjoying the food" he said
Oassu snickered "I dunno I heard they had some pretty odd appearances and that they weren't really demons but rather just mythical creatures like Phoenixes and the like" he said frowning as he spied a fishtank across the room "Well look at that Alpha got us something rather unusual for our room" he said getting up off the bed to go see it.
Jenna smirked filling the bucket with food "Well yes I did see that, had a laugh with some of the guys about it" she said "Was a small outrage while people thought it might influence the outcome of the match but it all ended fine" she said "Boco didn't really like it took him a while to get used to the escalators so he spent most of his time in the stables" he said.
Barbaros grumbled "I just spent most' my time kicking about bars and stuff nothing really fun to do there" he sighed "Not my place" he shrugged earning a pat on the shoulder from Itaka "Hey now relax you'll soon be back with Roberta and the kids for the dragon festival which will cheer you up no end I'll bet" he said

Alpha smiled closing his eyes "Could have kept me company but he's right about the dragon festival at least right? One day Itaka when your older you'll realise theres nothing more satisfying than spending time relaxing with the Mrs with the kids running around... though not so much your always chasing after them" he sighed sadly.
Seph laughed not surprised "Well theres always that little feeling in the back of your head that you might fall off the edge when you consider we're all walking about on giant clouds really" she shrugged offering Jenna a carrot to add to Boco's bucket. "Bet the chocobos at the arena stable loved the fact Chobi just always wanted to kweh away at things. You would have liked it in there. Lots of warriors leaving their valubles out in public while they trained."
Hebal giggled a little curious as to why Gilgamesh was bowing "Heya guys, we're just waiting for the yummy icy cake to land on the table. Nice dancing you guys and nice dress Satoshi" she complimented them before nibbling a little on the cake she already had. So are you two having a good time? We just arrived not long ago"

Satoshi grinned and patted Hebal in the ears "Thanks for the compliment. You look good in your dress too, I think I made you a good one" she answered back looking around to catch sight of the cakes travel progress. "Sure its lovely sweet food coming this way but I think Gil should get the first piece being champion anymore. Anyway I'm having a great time thanks" she cheerfully answered.
Felina raised her eyebrow hopping up off the bed to examine the fish tank more carefully "Does that mean we have to feed these little things? We at least need to name them but it seems so... random to be in a bedroom" she trailed off following with her gaze the path of a bright yellow angelfish. "Hehe we are so going to call that one Kimino"

Gil shook his head taking a tiny piece of the cake "I won't be having that much just yet still got a meal to eat after all" he said "And you do look lovely in your dress Miss Hebal, Lord Zadina is certainly lucky to have such a beautiful lady as his date for this evening" he teased.
Zadina blushed "No no no no Miss Hebal is not my date Sir she's just keeping an eye on be and is mega dressed up for the nice party, Miss Mari was too tired to come so let us take her invitations to this place for tonight" he said quickly
Oassu raised an eyebrow not having any understanding of fish "Why is that?" he asked "Though I guess we do have to be in charge of feeding them and naming them" he said staring at one that swum up to examine them curiously "Still it's a nice little touch I guess" he said.
Barbaros smiled "Ya mon I'm sure ya'll love it when you and Seph have nice little demonlings running around yer feet" he said stretching "Still we should probably get a move on if we want to go see the ceremony tha night" he said getting up.
Itaka sighed "Hey guys we're a long way off from kids so give me a break, I imagine Felina and Oassu will be first to have kids of us so go tease them" he said thinking about getting a beer "Still you are planning on seeing the closing ceremony? Might be able to persuade Seph to go to that, if not the private party" he said.
Jenna paused "I guess so" she said adding the carrot to the bucket "Yeah Chobi is certainly a sociable chocobo, must kweh Boco's ear off in all her time here but Boco will certainly be glad to be on the ground and it's a shame I'm getting quite good at wielding a sword while riding too" she said "Though apparently been a buncha crime surrounding the tournament this year so security will be tightened in future I'll bet" she said leaning against the wall.

Seph shuddered and nodded her head "Yeah there has been a lot of crime and corruption going on at the tournament and it's been involving judges apparently too so must be a huge embarrassment for the rest of them. Hense why the details are being kept reasonable quiet. Satoshi did a no show in her fight due to sabotage you know" she explained qietly while Chobi dived headfirst into her bucket.
Alpha smirked forcing himself up from his chair "One moment, get Seph to hurry up so they don't get any intruder surprises later in the evening" he pointed out imagining Jeckhart surprising the couple later on in the evening. "But Itaka, it's just so much easier to tease you because you aren't as likely to have thought that one over yet. Although with your antics I wouldn't rule out an accidental demonling"
Hebal grinned scooping each member of the group into a hug "Aww you guys are being all so nice, though better watch out Gil, theres enough guys checking your girlfriend out at this party" she added to him in a whisper mid hug. "So what ya gonna eat then other than the cake?"

Felina laughed pressing her finger against the glass and followed one of the other fish with it "That one so has to be called Kimino because it's an angel fish hehe. You can name some of the other ones and can pick next, since they all look so different we can easily tell them apart. Though I so hope Alpha remembered to buy the fish food from being off the airship"
Satoshi couldn't help but frown a little as she pretended not to hear Hebal's comment to Gil "Nah Hebal doesn't look like your date, more like a maid or a carer or maybe even a body guard for a poor defenseless little elf lord like yourself" she teased ruffling his hair "Should join us for dinner, I ordered myself a lobster out of curiousity"

Oassu nodded "That makes sense and he better have, will need to show us how to get into this one too as I don't know where we'd feed them from" he said seeing as the aquarium was embedded in the wall "So what other kinds of fish are in here?" he asked.
Zadina frowned fixing his hair "Well I'm so not defenceless I can take care of myself" he said "Though Miss Hebal would make a really good bodyguard though I'm not so sure she'd make a good maid" he said wondering how good she was at cleaning.
Gil chuckled "We know Zadina you're a tough little elf but you can order food like a restaurant from one of the booths over there, speaking of which we should probably get back if they try and bring us our food, you're welcome to join us if you like" he offered.
Jenna paused for a moment surprised "Well....don't think that's a smart idea, ol Knight Gilgamesh would probably kill whoevers responsible, take their sword too I'll bet" she said watching as Boco opted to eat his food more sensibly and slowly compared to Chobi's dive into the bucket.
Barbaros nodded moving over to the door and trapdoor "Hey alla you guys hurry up we'sa goin out!" he called into both of the entrances "Done though ya really should look into getting some kinda announce system for tha ship" he told Alpha.
Itaka blushed giving Alpha a punch in the arm "We're safe" he said simply "No need to worry about kids yet" he grumbled "Though I still doubt Oassu and Felina have planned kids contrary to what you think" he said
