 "You know, I'm not much of a fighter, but..." It was Reilynn's time to shine! She was going to show these people the true skills of her abilities and they will marvel at her skills. She was going to sparkle in their eyes and she was going to be the ping pong queen! She was certain of this! So Reilynn gripped her paddle and she was ready to take this hit to another level of ultimate ping pong! Um yeah! I got this, Tshila!" Reilynn cried out as she swung her paddle. "HGYAH!"
The ping pong ball was definitely not going to bounce on the table and was well on its way to sail over the table and bounce harmlessly on the floor. Obviously... not the right way to play ping pong. That was just an illegal shot. "What!? I have more strength than I thought I had! I'm... I'm a monster!" Reilynn cried out in shock. "...I'm a pretty darn good treasure hunter!"

Penelope watched the match with growing amusement. She wasn't sure which side to root for really, as Susan was on one side, and Tshila was on the other. So she just sat there smiling quietly, every once and awhile moving as if to cheer, or clap, or call some sort of encouragement, but never actually following through with it because by the time she decided to do it the moment had already passed. Despite feeling rather awkward and a little self conscious of what Terra might think of her actions, she was still enjoying herself. Finally, a point in the day when she was actually enjoying her vacation. A strange concept to be sure...

 ▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀ ▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄ "I don't get what people get so worked up. The place was just like home! Suzume had gone around and took a lot of pictures of the place so she could send them to her letters to her parents. Suzume had to find Misaki so they could reminisce about Japan. So she would think that maybe checking the entertainment room would be a good place to look.
When she entered, she heard noise. There were people in there! Suzume entered and found that it was a bunch of people she didn't know but one of them happened to be Reilynn who she knew at least! "Oh hi, Reilynn! Are you--" She didn't realize that a ping pong ball was on the floor and as she stepped on it, she felt herself sliding forward. "Whoooaaaaa...!" Suzume landed hard on her back and she could see birds flying around her. Not really.
She definitely made a good impression in front of these new people. How embarrassing. Suzume sat up and picked up the ball. "You know... ping pong is kind of hard to play if the ball is on the ground." If it's not any fun, then why bother?" '

"Whoa! Are you okay?" Tshila dropped her paddle and ran to Suzume, to help her up. "We are all totally horrible at this game! It's totally a dangerous sport!" She offered her hand to Suzume because she'd totally been in that situation where she'd been knocked down and no one helped her up and it was definitely not cool at all so she was absolutely going to help this girl even if she didn't know her.
At least she didn't think she did. "Anyway, I'm Tshila! I don't think we've met, but yeah. Man, we totally almost did you in. Maybe we should find something safer to do, like, you know, cards or something?"
"I don't know. Anyway, are you okay? Oh wait...I already asked that, didn't I? Not that it hurts to ask it again or anything but it's kind of weird repeating myself, know what I mean? But um, yeah. Are you?"

Woah. Reilynn was strong, they ball went flying past her and Morgan and hit the floor. "Wow. you're strong" Susan said. Another girl came into the room, and tripped on the ball on the floor. Susan turned around to help, but Tshila was already there. "Crap. Are you okay?" Susan asked and put her paddle on the table and went over to Tshila and the girl.

"You know, I'm not much of a fighter, but..."  No way! It wasn't an apparition or anything? Reilynn's eyes sparkled from the tears of joy! Well, she wasn't really crying but she was so happy to see her friend! Her kin! Suzume! "Suzume!" Reilynn said as she ran to hug her. Never mind if Tshila tried to help her up. Reilynn probably might have knocked her down again if she tried to hug her. But... maybe not. After all, Reilynn was not that strong!
Ping pong was long forgotten and Reilynn had dropped her paddle in excitement. She was thinking that maybe they could do a new game now since Reilynn was certain that ping pong was no fun because the ball wasn't bouncing right. It was definitely broken. "I'm so happy to see you! I mean, we could do a lot of things? Oh but you fell! Are you okay? Man, I'm like the third person to ask you that. But you should be okay right? If you're not, I'll burn all the ping pong balls in the world because they hurt my friends! But you know, that ping pong ball was so broken. It wouldn't bounce right when I hit it. I mean, on the phone game, it's supposed to bounce no matter what unless you swing your finger all wrong." Reilynn rambled. "And yeah, I think Tshila is right. New game plan were we could have everyone play. Like what kind of game could we play with so many people. I mean, we rarely have this many people in one place. I like cards, but maybe we could go on an adventure to look for treasure, right?" Reilynn was talking really fast now. It was really hard to get her to stop since she was just so excited to see her friend and mainly because she was holding back all her words when she was trying to play ping pong and it was painful for her. After all, she wanted to greet the new people but she was focused on spanking that ball.
She turned to Penelope and Terra. "What do you guys think? We should all play one great big awesome game, right?" "...I'm a pretty darn good treasure hunter!"

▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄ "I don't get what people get so worked up. Crap, crap, crap. Suzume caused some kind of commotion. She was not going to stick around as the center of attention of loserness. The only time she wants to be the center of attention is if she is dancing or playing the koto. How embarrassing! She did not want to make her first impression seem like a clumsy and bumbling person! Suzume just grinned at Tshila as she let the girl help her up. "My name is Suzume and thanks--" Suzume was cut off when Reilynn hugged her suddenly. She almost fell right back down to the ground. She had intended to answer both Tshila and the other girl with cat ears all at once since they had asked the same question, but she couldn't find the timing because Reilynn just kept talking.
Finally, she stopped. "Okay, first of all, I'm fine. I just didn't see that ping pong ball there, but I don't think I broke anything. And... sure! I'm up for a game as long as you guys don't mind a change of pace." If it's not any fun, then why bother?" '

Whoa. Terra was a little stunned at how much could happen in about under a minute or so. Meet a bunch of new people, see ping pong ball get eaten, listen to a couple of girls talk a mile a minu- no, a mile a second, watch a rather sad game of ping pong in which the ball goes flying everywhere, and then trips somebody else, who is then smothered by the - everyone. Ok. Although she would have gotten up to help, the new girl seemed just a bit overhelped currently, and what was the point of going through the effort of getting up at this point? Nah. "Sure, I'm up for just about anything as well. Whatever you guys wanna do," Terra said after Suzume, fighting down laughter. Oh, no wonder it's called the "entertainment room" - this was definitely entertaining. “Never be bullied into silence. Never allow yourself to be made a victim.

"Alright, well," Tshila said, helping Suzume up. "well, cards is kind of boring unles we play strip poker or something and, man, as fun as that would be to do and have someone walk in on--just so we could see their face, I think Morgan would totally die. And then we'd have to find a place to bury the body where no one would find it and that would just totally put a dampener on the whole vacation."
She wandered around the room, poking all the weird bits of furniture or decorations, idly. "So, yeah. Any ideas that don't involve people getting hurt or dying? Cause I'm kind of out of ideas."
She leaned on a little wall sconce next to a bookshelf, and watch the others. She frowned slightly, as the sconce gave way just a little, creaking rather loudly. Then the bookcase behind her shifted and Tshila abruptly fell backwards with a loud shriek, into a dark passage way.
"Graaaaaaaaaaaaaaaagh!"

Penelope Mikelovitch
It felt like the entertainment room was getting a little crowded to Penelope. Being around so many new people (with the threat of having to interact with ALL of them) wasn't really sitting well with her, and if it wasn't for the fact that she had several friends in the room to act as prospective morale stabilizers she would have most likely migrated to a corner and pretended that she was a part of the wall. As it was, she was starting to feel a little grateful that she had already accidentally been turned into a girl, because if she had been a boy when she entered the room, chances were that by now she'd have changed anyways, what with all the other females around. Now she just felt awkward for Morgan, who was probably feeling a little like the odd man out... literally. At least, that's how she would have felt if she were the only boy in the room.
She had blinked in surprise as Suzume clattered to the floor, not really sure how to react to the situation, but really, she didn't need to. All the attention was diverted from her, so she was free to look as blank faced as she needed to while everyone else was talking with the newcomer. Of course then Reilynn suddenly turned and asked her and Terra a question, which Terra proceeded to answer... well, pretty much how she herself would have answered it, albeit with a considerably larger amount of stuttering.
So she sort of just stared uncomfortably at her shoes, feeling like an awkward mute, or one of those extras in a movie that you only see in passing or chewing silently in the back of a diner and feeling rather unintelligent due to having nothing to contribute to the conversation, until a sudden loud shriek ripped her out of her silent gloom, causing her to squeak in surprise. She turned in her seat, just barely glimpsing Tshila fall backwards into a random, dark entrance to... something. "Ah!... Tshila!" She yelped, concern evident on her face as she scrambled to her feet and hurried towards the odd passageway.

"You know, I'm not much of a fighter, but..." ((I'm getting confused with the order. D=< So I'm just going to post. ; -; I'm sorry if I skip anyone.))
Yay for another game! Reilynn was about to suggest Adventures/Explorers where they can all pretend to swim around in the deep sea exploring the place until they find the magical kingdom of the merpeople where they could steal the trident and put it back to its rightful place. Of course, she might have to change up the plot because maybe there might be merpeople around here like Kamil! Reilynn opened her mouth to suggest her grand plan when Tshila screamed. Reilynn glanced her way and found a secret passageway! The bookshelf moved! Reilynn's jaw dropped for a moment. No way, no way, no way! A real mystery! She was worried about Tshila, but she couldn't deny her excitement.
"Oh shooooot! We need to get Tshila back! Um... I propose we all grab something useful and head on in!" Reilynn said as she looked around. Wait, wait, wait. Reilynn didn't need to grab something useful. She pulled out her paintbrush and waved it in the air. "Listen! There's a ton of us and one big dark scary hallway. I think we have this kidnapper outnumbered. Besides, if we don't hurry, who knows what'll happen to Tshila!" And without waiting to see what anyone else thought, Reilynn leapt into the dark passageway after Tshila. "...I'm a pretty darn good treasure hunter!"

"Susan, is my name. Nice to meet you Suzume!" Susan said and smiled at the girl who had just entered. Everyone but Susan knew this girl. Oh well. Susan listen to Reilynn jabber. "Combined game. Sounds good! It would be fun" Susan responded. She looked over Tshila who had made a yelp sound and fallen into some kind of weird hallway. "What the hell! Where did that come from?" Susan exclaimed and scurried over to Tshila and Penelope and Reilynn were there now, too.

"I'm okay!" Tshila called, picking herself up off the floor as the others headed into the tunnel. "But...whoa! The bookshelf totally moved! Did you guys see that? Well, I mean, I guess you did since it would be kind of hard to miss." Brushing herself off, she peered down the tunnel.
"We should totally explore! There could be treasure! Or, um, cannibals. Which would not exactly be the best thing to discover." She paused. "Well, unless they're guarding treasure."
"So, what's the plan?"

Terra wasn't really concerned about thinking of an idea for something to do, so she just sat while the others tried to think of something, and watched Tshila poke around the room, because she was, well, moving. And her movements were more interesting to watch than the people just standing. And the most interesting part of said movements was when Tshila stopped moving for a moment, and the bookshelf she was leaning against moved instead, creating a passageway and a shriek. "Cool!" Terra said as she jumped up and quickly followed the others over. She wasn't really concerned about Tshila, mostly because she figured the girl could handle falling backwards just the same as everybody else. Plus, there were about a million other people who were bound to try to make sure she was okay. An lo and behold, a plan to rescue her. What a surprise... Tshila's idea was better. "Right! Let's go," Terra replied shortly to Tshila's proposition, deciding that plans weren't necessary. Course, they could all wait and make plans, but just seemed like such a waste of time. Terra followed Reilynn into the passageway, reaching for the wrists of Susan and Penelope to pull them along. As she plunged into the darkness, Terra realized a slight problem with their exploration.
