Welcome to Gaia! ::

Kumizu didn't have time to ask about the rose tattoo before he was dunked underwater. He made the mistake of opening his mouth in surprise and it soon was flooded with the warm water. He blew it out as he considered how to get back at her. He stayed underwater, thinking about all the different things he could do, and finally settled on one thing. It may scare her more than surprise her, but what the hell? He grabbed her ankles and pulled her underwater, just for a second, with a smirk on his face.

Oh. s**t. He knew she was afraid of the water, but didn't think she'd faint like this.

He pulled her up from underwater, let her head drop so excess water would come out, then laid her flat on her back on the ground. He put his ear to her mouth. She wasn't breathing... and Kumizu really only knew one thing to do at this time. He opened her mouth and kissed her, breathing into her and pressing both hands on her chest. "Get someone here from the hospital!" he called to anyone nearby. He continued CPR, all the while cursing at himself.

'Everything's so dark and...sparkly...'

Ayise opened her eyes and blinked..and blinked again, before letting out a blood-curtling scream. Pushing him away with such force he went flying, "T-this is too sudden, I'm not ready for that kind of thing-" She was completely red (even her hair), she coughed up more water;

"I don't believe this..." Apparently she wasn't aware that she'd almost drowned, "Mother warned me of the complications of outside schools!" Shw wailed, running out of the spring and disappearing into the females' changing room.

"normal?" she repeated alittle suprised. anything BUT normal. Boy I feel sorry for that guy... I hope nothing to bad happeneds to the two... she tought and secconds later started to swim arround in the springs again. She foalted on her back for awhile and relaxed, closing her eyes. She didnt take much notice to any of the people arround her in the springs. Soon boredom got the best of her. She opened her eyes and floated over to some bamboo and rocks, leaning up against them. For some odd reason, she still had her thick gloves on her hands. She grabbed the tip of her fingure on her right hand and pulled off the glove, then the same with the other. She hovered her hands above the steaming hot water, and soon the area arround her was frozen leaving her stuck in the ice, but she didnt care much for it. The hot water arround the frozen area would soon melt it right away so she watched her creation melt. It only took a minute or two for the ice to dissapear, and when it did, so did she taking her gloves with her.

She changed back into her tight long jeaned, slipped on her shoes, and put on her shirt. Soon she was out of the place, it looked like she was headed out toward olivers play ground from that area.

Yume casually walked into the co-ed springs, a towel wrapped around her small form and her hair in a messy bun at the top of her head. She looked around for anyone familiar and sighed. No-one.

I have the feeling that I need to make some new friends...Pander is a good friend. Well, more like my boyfriend. Scytheress...well, Scytheress is a friend I guess.

Rachel came walking into the hot springs shortly after her training session with Nobara. She was glad she didn't have to use her powers anymore that day, and that she could finally kick back and relax a little bit. Not even the boys hanging around outside making catcalls as she walked by bothered her that much, and she passed by them with little more than a momentary annoyed glance before striding into the girls' locker room. Taking off the tank top she'd changed into, and slipping out of her shorts, she placed her sandals on top of her clothing, putting it all neatly into one of the lockers and taking the key.

Rachel was wearing a simple blue one-piece swimsuit, all one solid color. She hated ostentatious swimwear, reasoning that there was no point in making guys even more likely to pay unwanted attention to her. That happened quite enough to begin with. Grabbing one of the towels, she headed off in the direction of the girls' only section of the bath, slipping into the water and waiting for Nobara to arrive.

Rachel was leaning up contentedly against the side of the bath as Nobara walked in. Somehow, she didn't even need to open her eyes to tell that it was her. She lazily waved a hand in her direction, making satisfied noises of relaxation as she slid a little further down into the water. As she felt the water shifting around her as Nobara got in, she finally opened her eyes, propping herself up against the side.

"Pretty good idea, huh?" she said, smiling. "I don't know why I didn't come to this place sooner... this is like heaven."

Boots clacking on the stone path he came to a stop as he leaned over as he crouched panting. Wiping sweat from his brow he looked behind him and smirked. Composing himself he walked into the lobby of the hotsprings in an odd manner, rather stiff actually as he punched a fist into the air in child like joy.

"Bwahahaha Tam wins this time!", he declared as he felt the warm air from the hotsprings engulf his body. Smiling he sat down as he waited for them his tail flickering about. As he purred happily, waiting for Glissa and Lucreshia.
