White, fluffy tail flapped from left to right and backwards excitedly as a little white wolf girl ran from cage to cage and sniffed each of them. To her, scents were more interesting than animals, who did nothing but sleep.
They were walking between cages that held all kind of animals inside bars. Right now, they were heading towards arctic section of zoo. Noor believed them to be some sort of magical children of nature (them turning from leaves to furry kids was enough proof for her of that). Noor felt that being around things of nature, even though those animals were inprisoned, would make them feel comfortable.
Noor smiled. So far, so good.

Kyocho followed behind Noor. Cradling Riddik in his arms as they wandered about the zoo. It was unbelievable how much Riddik had slept ever since he had appeared. Luckily he had the help of his other kids to keep an eye on him and more than happily they attended Kyo and Riddik to the zoo it was Oak followed by Opuntia then last but not least Coudray marching in a line. It was sometimes difficult to keep an eye on all four of them, but he managed.
"You sure do sleep a lot Riddik" The elf grumbled and in turn was answered with a slight growling that burped out of the boys mouth.
"Maybe because he's a bear." Oak shouted as he tugged on the edge of his guardians shirt.
"Most likely," Kyo responded. Turning his head around to take a visual count to make sure the others were still following. Oak had a smile on his face as usual. Kyo knew the boy loved to see animals. Opunita looked content as always and seemed to be in a different place... then it was Coudray. He never looked happy a day in his life.

Kiri looked on as her daughter galloped around looking at everything. Alice had an incredible level of curiousity and was almost as interested in the information and signs as she was with the animals. Kiri herself was taking it easy and fliting between telling her daughter about the animals and taking photos of said animals. After she had made sure Alice understood the basic rules she could relax a bit, Alice was surprisingly obeident and tended not to roam too far.
Alice was thrilled, this had to be the best place her mum had ever taken her, there was so much to do. It was a pity that mum had made it clear that not only was she not to try and get food from the other people around but she was also to stay on this side of the fences and not try and feed or play with the animals.
She didn't understand that, she loved food and Kestral was always happy when she was fed, so why was it wrong to feed the animals, surely they got hungry too? Maybe they had a special diet, Simon had told her that not all animals could eat the same thing when she tried to eat grass after seeing a picture of a rabbit eating grass.
Still there was so much to see that she could put aside thoughts of food for the time being. She had never seen so many people and animals before, both were equally interesting to her.

"What's that? What's that? Huh, mommy?? What is that??" Nikiana was tiring of the neverending line of questions coming from Evelyn. Since the leaf had sprouted into this child, the girl had seemed to go nonstop questioning everything. Niki had been proud at first. After all, an inquistive nature was a great one for a scientist, but the questioning got old. Real quick.
The girl had somehow found out about the zoo and had pestered Niki until she finally gave in to taking the girl. Evelyn had been amazed to see the different animals roaming the zoo in their different cages. They'd been through the safari area and Niki had avoided the reptile house for now. Snakes weren't exactly her favorite thing.
As they passed a sign about the penguin exibit, Evelyn asked "What's a penguin?"
"Let's go find out." Niki replied with a sigh.

After some while traveling from side of cage to another, need for comfort called Cream back to her family and so she springed towards them. On her way, though, she happened to bump into another girl. A surprised gasp was let out from wolf girl's mouth as she fell on her butt. Green eyes stared at Alice, victim of the bump, with reserved but also curious look.
A nice scent from flower Eden not so far away reached on Cream's nose and the wolf girl made a mental note to check it after she had tried to awake Riddik. Bro should come and examine the place with her! But at first, she wanted to see if the girl in front of her was ally or foe.
Meanwhile, Noor had found a seat and took a little break from a tour. Not that her feet were tired, not at all, it more like a mental weariness.

Riddik began to stir in Kyocho's arms. The boy slowly lifted his head up from his resting place and opened his eyes and look straight at this guardian.
"Well good morning Riddik" The elf nodded, "better late than never" Kyo smiled and lifted the boy up and down towards the ground. "My arms are getting tired so you get to walk now.
Riddik looked back up towards his guardian and gave him a dirty look. He was comfortable after all... with no worries and strictly care free in his arms. The little polar bear shrugged his shoulders and looked left and right until he spotted Cream and rushed his way towards her.
"There he goes.." Oak whispered to himself.

Alice looked with worry at the girl who had just bumped into her. The now familiar tingle was coming from her which meant she was a friend, like Hana and Alexis and Alice knew that falling down could hurt.
Normally when meeting a new friend Alice would first give them a hug but this was a special case since her new friend was presently sitting on the ground, so instead she offered a hand feeling that it was more important that her new friend get up first.
After the first worried look Alice had regained her usual look of cheerful friendliness and was wagging her tail hopefully, she could sense two other tingles near by, one approaching rapidly, and while her mum had told her not to play with strangers these weren't strangers, they were friends she just hadn't met yet.
Kiri looked on cautiously. It was good that Alice was acting so politely but she knew that her daughter was very touchy feely and it wouldn't take much to set her off. Still there was no harm in Alice meeting other children her age and the new girl did look nice. Maybe it would get her talking a bit.

Evelyn had been happily prancing towards the penguin exhibit when she suddenly came to a dead stop. Niki peered curiously down at the girl, who was looking left and right as if looking for something. But, before the woman could ask what was up, her daughter darted off. "Evelyn!" Niki broke out into a run after the girl.
The young girl turned a corner and almost ran into two girls who were standing, or well, one was standing and helping the other up. She was peering at the two girls when Niki caught up to her. Evelyn turned towards her mother. "What's those?" She asked, pointing to Alice and Cream.
"It's not nice to point, Evelyn..." The woman told the girl, finding a bench nearby to sit and catch her breath.
"Why, Mommy?"
"It's just not," was the answer, which made the poinsettia girl frown. That wasn't an answer! But these girls were curious and she put aside the pointing issue to inspect the two more closely.

The other girl was offering a hand to her. She wanted to help. But instead of taking her hand, Cream leaned forward to sniff it. Then, she smiled. Alice was considered as a friend now.
It didn't take even a minute when Cream's furry, pointy ears perked up and a little towards Riddik's location. As she turned to look there, she spotted him.
"Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee~~~~" she screamed and dashed towards Riddik, arms wide open to grap his hand and drag him around to show him all the animals and then beg mama and papa to buy ice cream. Cream really loved ice cream.
On her seat, Noor had rose her gaze to the wolf girl. She smiled a small smile. Children were silly. And adorable in that way.

Kyo smiled as he watched Cream run for her brother. At least they where linked and weren't alone in this world. That at least made the elf smile. Looking back towards his other children following him... unlike the two the rest of them where all alone, basically only children and he made the best of the situation and tried to get them all to feel like family. Oak was the best at this, he seemed to make a real connection with them all and make a symbol as being a very caring one. It really helped out a lot around the house.
Riddik watched as his sister came running for him and grabbed his hand. An "umph.." sound rang as he was pulled almost against his free will. The polar bear boy couldn't really make sense as to why these animals were caged up, but oh well. They were different then the two... so maybe that was why.
Kyo wandered up next to Noor and took a seat. The elf looked up into the sky then back down and began to scan the area left and right. There were two others in view. One named "Evelyn" obviously since that was the name he had heard being called out from a woman chasing her. The little girl almost looked like a plant too, kind of like Oak. The other girls name was still unknown, but he didn't make it an effort to find out.

Alice was a bit confused with her new friends reaction. She was used to many situations but being ignored wasn't one of them. Should she go over to where her new friend and the other child was, or should she leave them alone? While she thought about what to do she looked around trying to identify the last tingle she felt, she finally identified a girl who smelled of flowers as the tingle.
With the last one identified Alice thought for a bit on what to do now before deciding to fetch this new one and then they could go and see what the other two were up to, then all four friends would be able to enjoy the zoo together. This decided she ran over to Evelyn and gave her a hug before grinning at her and wagging her tail.
Kiri watching from the sidelines nearly groaned, she had hoped that she had trained Alice out of hugging strange people, but apparently she hadn't. She hoped that the new girl wouldn't take it amiss, especially as Alice tended not to talk and so didn't normally explain her actions. She looked around to identify the parent or parents of this newest child, just incase she needed to make appologies.

Evelyn had turned her attention from her mother's crazy rules to Riddik and Cream as the girl ran to the little boy and hugged him. That was a bit odd. Suddenly, before she could think much more, she was suddenly a victim of a hug. The girl blinked, more startled than anything. She glanced at the girl who'd come over and hugged her.
It was the girl was puppy ears and a tail. One of the girls she'd seen upon coming around the corner. After a few moments, Evelyn smiled shyly back at the girl. "Hi." She whispered, suddenly shy.
Niki watched, noticing the other girl's parent from the one that flinched as Evelyn was hugged. Niki just sat back and waited for her daughter's reaction, curious as to how Evelyn would react to this sudden action.

To other girls, Cream's action may have seemed odd but to her, it made the perfect sense. Riddik was her bro, the dearest thing in her life (even more dearest than mama and papa). Of course she would greet him when he wokes up!
The wolf girl's tail wagged from side to side as she clinged on Riddik's arm. For a short moment, she closed her eyes and smiled happily. Then her nose picked the same scent that she had smelled after bumping into Alice. It didn't take long for her to locate the scent. It came from that girl the doggy girl was with.
"Nice smell," she informed to Riddik, pointing at Evelyn.
Kyo was greeted by a little smile when he sat next to Noor. While it may had not looked like it, Noor felt much safer now when he was there. She had actually felt quite lost. The situation, being part of the family now, it was scary and confusing situation.
But now there were two kids in this world that loved her and Kyo, almost as much as they loved themselves.

"How are you holding up Noor?" The elf glanced slightly at the woman, knowing how much of a change this must be. It was much like when Kyo first had received Oak, then shortly after that the children just seemed to follow suit, "This must be a big change for you." Kyo nodded. Glancing away and towards Oak as he remembered they day that he appeared... then Opuntia... then Coudray, which of course he wasn't sure if that was a mistake or not... and last, but not least Riddik.
Riddik followed... well more like dragged behind Cream quietly. Sniffing at the air as he went along. It was almost time to eat something, but to him it was dinner time anytime. Riddik glanced the figure up and down, "Nice smell?" the boy looked confused, "but she not fish?". Riddik shook his head as his tummy began to growl, "It's be about dinner time?" The polar bear boy questioned his sister.

Alice taking Evelyn's smile and quiet hi as a sign of acceptance grinned and bounced even more than before, then taking Evelyn's hand tugged her lightly in the direction of the other two. If it was just her she would have just ran over but one friend had already fallen over today and she didn't want to risk Evelyn falling at well.
She wanted to go over to the other two more than ever, she was sure she had heard something about food, and she really liked food, maybe if all of them worked together her mum would let her have some.
Kiri was releaved to see that the girl hadn't seemed to mind Alice's hug but still kept a good eye on things. Alice was the sweetest creature in existance but she was also full of energy. This would also be the first time Alice was really around this many other kids her age, she hoped Alice would be fine.
