Sie smirked at Reiha. Although he was prone to show off now and then, this act was purely for entertainment. He squirmed over to the side of the branch, as if clearing the area for...something.
"Watch!" He chirped before touching forefinger and middlefinger to the scarred area of the tree bark. A small crackling light appeared around his fingers. Bi-colored eyes lost their childish sparkle, replaced by the weary expression of concentration. The Passenger stuck his tongue out of the side of his lips as he focused on the object he was creating.
There was a loud pop and a small wooden figure of a chick fell into Sie's waiting palm. He handed the trinket to Reiha with a proud smile.
"I found it in a book!" He exclamed pointing to where the small marking had once been.
"I wonder what they're doing?" Hikari muttered with a twinge of concerned masked in her voice. The guardian made to stand until she saw all too familar lights. Sie was at it...Again.
The Guardian shot from her seat over to the two children, her expression one of dissapointment.
"Sie Remus Corrigan!"

Reiha titled her head to the side confused as she watched what Sei was doing. Halfway though she looked up as Korbin gave a loud caw, one that was pure noise. She was confused by the way her best friend was freaking out and looking over to Sei.
POP!
Reiha might of jumped if tehre was anywhere to go but she was stuck. Her eyes whiden as a chick came out of no where and her mind spun. Magic. Real, honest to goodness magic. Questions swirled in her mind by the millions and she opened her mouth to ask them as her hand slowly grabbed the chick.
It was there, it was real.
"Sie Remus Corrigan!" the woman Adian had be flirting with yelled suddenly, making Reiha shut her mouth and look over in surpise.
"That" she told Sie quickly, "Was neat" she said it in a way that was very serious. Neat was aparently a very high compliment. "Can I have it?"
Adian frowned as he saw the lights and frowned deeper when his casual flirting parnter turned all mom. He let out a very quiet sigh and rose. He heard Korbin caw but since he didn't hear any screaches from the boy he was pretty sure that Reiha was okay? He should proably make sure though.
He glanced at Hikari and then back at the tree. "Hey ah....what's the problem with the light things?" Adian asked.

"He's-he's," Hikari fluttered her hands and groped for the words that would make the most sense to Aiden, "Morphing things again."
Hikari stomped off towards the tree tapping her foot impatiently, hands flitting about her face. What a mischevious son she had come to have.
"I told you not to do such things," The guardian said. She did not want Sie to continue with this disfiguration and recreation things. It frightened her, that maybe the small child would end up hurting himself. What if the giagantic spikes he was so prone to creating from the household pots and pans impaled his hands as he preformed this...thing?
Sie visably winced as he peaked over the side of the tree in fear of his mother's wrath. Reiha's comment pulled him from his state of fear to utter pride. He gave her a happy smirk and nodded sharply to her question of keeping the small wooden chick.
"Yeah," He chirped before another snort from Hikari threw him back into fear yet again, "Eh...that's my Mu." He said pointing down to the fuming figure.
"Sie! What do you have to say for yourself?" Hikari shouted up again at the boy.
"I'm sorry, Mu..." Sie said, hanging his head, belly scratching against the rough bark as he crawled to the edge, "I wanted to show Reiha. She said it was -- nevermind."
The child stopped his sentence after giving his new friend a glance. He didn't know why his mind refused to allow him to tell the other Passenger's opinion. It just seemed that it was a secret or something. He was young, but oddly sentimental.

"He was morphing things!?" Adian repeated with a slight disbeliving tone. he titled his head to the side and turned to look up at the small boy. Morphing...things. What the hell was that? He glanced to Reiha, suddenly worred she start to make bright flashes of light and morph things. Reiha hadn't shown to be anything other then human, well expect for the crow. That was werid but Adian just thought Korbin as a smart pet that Reiha treated like an imaginary friend. Something that she stop talking to soon enough. God he hoped he wouldn't have to take her to a mind docter or something later in life. This whole parenting thing was a rip. He didn't even get to have sex to get a kid.
"Your Mu?" Reiha asked surpised, titling her head to the side and looking down at Hikari. She frowned, noticing she was yelling at her friend. That wasn't good. She looked up at Sei and saw he had winced and was apologizing. For doing something really neat. He changed things, with light and thoughts. That wasn't bad. no one got hurt.
She jumped down and looked up at Hikari defantly. "He didn't hurt anyone!" Reiha said firmly. "Why is it bad?" she demanded, she wanted to know why this strange woman was yelling at her friend. You don't yell at Reiha's friends unless there is a reason. "He made me a present" she added, showing the wooden chick to Hikair but holding it poessivly.
Adian blushed slightly but gave a sort of calming grin to REiha. "Uh Reiha, let Sei's mom take care of this k?" Adian started but blinked when Reiha just send him a dark sort of glare. He took a step forward but suddenly Korbin let out a cry and flew at him.
"Goddamnit!" Adiancried trying to brush the crow from his face "Get this ******** bird off of me!"

"Sie, I just worry," Hikari said, calming and rubbing her temples. She cast a wary glance over at Reiha's gift and gave the other child a small but soft smile. She couldn't keep a temper even if her life depended on it. And at times like this, when two children were rebuking, she could crumble, "Becareful, hun. If you get hurt, Mu will be sad."
Sie nodded before glancing back at Reiha, it felt nice knowing that someone was there to stick up for him. He gave her a broad grin after nodding at his mother.
Bi colored eyes flashed worry as he saw the crow, Corbin fly by. Shock filled his senses as he saw the black bird flapping and attacking Aiden.
"Reiha, Corbin's eating your Mu!" He wailed in worry, "Why is he eating your Mu?"
Hikari glanced back at Aiden, shock also resonating in her features. She scrambled over, not wanting to aggrivate the bird more. Touching or waving her arms would be seen as an offensive gesture. Thusly, she tugged on Aiden's sleeve to pull him away from the frantic Familiar.

Worried? Reiha blinked and frowned, then looked over at Korbin as he attacked Adian. She didn't do anything for a long moment, just watching, as if she was letting Adian get his punnishment.
"That's not my Mu. That's Adian" Reiha explained to Sei. Adian wasn't a Mu, what ever that way. Adian was...this guy. Who forced her to do things like go to the park...and met guys like Sei that were kinda cool. You know, for guys. Reiha looked at Krobin again then said quickly.
"Stop!"
Korbin pulled back, leaving Adian was a scratched and bleeding face but nothing some bandaids and antibiatoics couldn't cure and flaped back to Reiha, he landed on her head and bent down to lick the blood off his feet. He didn't want to stain Reiha's shirt but he looked around at the boy and his 'Mu' suspiously.
"Why did you call me off?" Korbin asked Reiha, slightly anoyed. he wouldn't of hurt the guy...well too bad. Like take out an eye or anything, just teach him why you don't mess with Reiha.
"Because...because he isn't half bad" Reiha explained slowly, and looked down at his chick, "Because...maybe he just worries about me, and maybe...you know, he cares" she said softly, glancing up at her bird, then over at Sei. "Like Sei's Mu does."
Then she spoke louder, so people could hear her again, "Sei, what's a Mu?"
"That ******** bird!" Adian cursed, "I swear someday I'll...
Adian trailed off and tried to whipe off his face that just made everything look a whole lot worse. "If that girl didn't love that waste of air and feathers I'd stuff my pillow with him" Adian growled to Hikari, glaring at the small dark crow. "This is the second damn time he's attacked me. What does he expect me to do when I touch her?"

Hikari barked out a laugh, it all seemed so funny in prospect. She dug into her pocket, pulling out a nice stack of tissues for Adian, handing them over to the scratched man.
"Well, he's just over protective. It's instinct?" She questioned to no one in particular. She thought about how Sie was overly protective of the compass about his neck. Hikari had insisted about buying a new one for him on the case that Sie's wouldn't even point north. But he still cherished it more than the science books with pictures he's been flipping through.
"Watch your language." Hikari added with a small smile.
Sie sat back and thought to himself, relieved that Reiha had saved her mum. Bi colored eyes fluttered open to focus on Reiha and the question she asked.
"A mu is..Mum? And a mum is an older person who knows lots of stuff who takes care of you," Sie said, contorting his face in concentration of his definition,"And they give you food." He added brightly.
The small boy swung his legs over the side and kicked his feet. A feeling of sadness washed over him. Why did Reiha not know what a Mu was? Everyone has a Mu, right? With furrowed brow and confused state, He smirked proudly and shot a finger at the form of Hikari.
"I luv'ma Mu," He said quickly, a blush covering his cheeks, "That's only because She loves me too."

Adian frowned, he did not like getting laughed at unless he did something on purpose to be laughed at for. Still He took the tissues and used them to clean up his face. Jeez he had to do alot of doctering when he got home so his face wouldn't be this huge mass of scars. Adian didn't think of himself as a vain man, or one overly concered with his looks but he didn't want to be covered with scars. That just look stupid.
Though he could turn it into a real cool story, but still he rather have one scar to turn into a real cool story. One scar was dashing, many was...not. It was icky and would turn woman off which was a big no no for him.
He nearly snapped at the one helping him when she told him to watch his language but then jsut took a deep breath, "yeah, sorry, normally I'm better about it" he muttered, "But hell normally I'm not getting attacked but crows" he grumbled underneth his breath.
"I geuss it's instinct. The stupid bird never let's Reiha out of his site and she talks to the thing, like caries on complete conversations with him. Kinda worries me but she seems to be able to kinda control him, sorta"
Reiha frowned at that distription and looked over to Adian then back at Sei. A mu...mum took care of you? Well Adian did that, and did give her food but he didn't seem to know all that much, at least not really. He was always looking confused when she asked him questions and always seemed unsure of himself when ever she did something. Adian didn't know anything at all it seemed.
"Adian doesn't love me" Reiha said after a long time and looked up at Sei, "And I don't love him. I think Korbin is my Mu. Korbin loves me and I love him and Korbin protects me. Adian doesn't. Adian jsut lets me sleep in his house and try to control me. No one can control me" Reiha said defaintly. "I'm free" she told Sei, "No man will hold me down!"
Adian stoped patching up and worring about his face for a second as he over heard Reiha's little speach. He just watched her for a long moemnt and then shook his head. Why did that love part hurt? Reiha was cute and maybe he liked her a bit but he didn't love her. She was just this kid that fell into his lap. Someone he decied to take care of because well he wasn't mean or anything.
"Jesus" he said softly, "What the hell did that girl go though before she got on that train?" She had to go though something, she was so...bitter, so...independent. She's five year old, tops. And she was ready to just live on her own.
Why?

Hikari sighed and patted Adian's back before glancing upwards at the tree. The guardian bit down the worry that ached in her stomach at the sight of Sie hanging off of the tree like that. It was dangerous and she did not feel like visiting the hospital today.
"It is kind of odd, that she favors the bird over you," Hikari blushed slightly, realizing that this could certainly be taken offensively. "I mean, not to be rude or anything."
Reaching into her satchel, Hikari withdrew a baby-wipe of sorts and handed it to Adian, "Go clean up. Infections are horrible to deal with, especially ones on the face."
Sie glanced between Adian and Reiha with a baffled expression on his features.
"But, Korbin's a birdie. And what if Adi-Ad...A," Sie struggled with the name, "Mr. Reiha taker-carer loves you?"
Sie face suddenly changed to utter disgust, "Why we talk'n about luf anyway." He muttered catching himself talking about a 'girly' subject. And realization shimmered in his eyes, "No one can hold me down either!"
Hikari glanced up at Sie's statement and could only falter at the rebellious charm Reiha has illuminated him with. This could be trouble.
Adian's self question brought Hikari back into reality.
"I never thought about what the passengers went through before they came here, or why. But it happened and I'm doing my best to care for Sie, he's like a son-" Hikari caught herself and blinked, "no he is a son to me"

Adian sighed as he worried over his face. he never veiwed himself as overly vain. Sure he looked in the mirror before going out on date. Sometimes during the day he would look over himself to make sure he looked good but not vain. But still he didn't want a mass of scars.
"Not odd at all" Adian muttered, "She just likes him. I think she hates me because I'm a guy. Or at least dislikes me because of it. Don't be embaressed, it's the truth"
Adian blinked as she pulled out a baby whipe and he gave her a genuine smile. One that held no hint of flirt or tease, just a kind, friendly smile.
"Thank Hikari" he said and started to carefully clean his cuts. He really hoped they wouldn't scare. "Hey Kari? Do you think I'll look like some sort of Frankenstine?"
Reiha gave a bitter sort of laugh that made adian give her a werid look. She was too young to be so bitter. What did she have to be bitter about?
"Adian doesn't love me. Only Korbin loves me" she told him sternly. "I'm not a thing to love" she added after a moment, hugging Korbin closely. "Nethir is Korbin, that's why we have each other" she said, stroking him.
Reiha looked back up at him, and smiled, "Good, don't let no one hold you back from what you want!" she said, "No one can stop me! I'm going to be something special, something nice. You just wait and see"
"I think about it alot"Adian admited to Hikari,"Because Reiha's so...odd" he added, "She has full conversations with Korbin and she can read and she's so content to be alone and why she seems to dislike me so much. I haven't even punnished her once. I've gotten her clothes, fed her,given her a place to live. I think I've treated her pretty good. Maybe I don't love her like a daughter but...how can she hate me for that?" Adian spoke softly, not wanting Reiha to over hear.
