Yes. Dakota was stuck up in a tree. No he was not happy. He had been stuck their for almost 4 hours now and it looked like it was going to RAIN....again.
"I am never eating a pastry/treat/cookie from that woman again." He lamented as he wiggled in the tree. The string that kept him from floating into the atmosphere was tangled a peculiar amount of odd looking branches. Or maybe they were ?Halloween creatures in disguise.
Was he getting delusioned now? Yes. He had been stuck in a tree with the ability to float for four hours. IMAGINE WHAT WOULD HAPPEN FOR THE REST OF THE TWENTY.
"CAN SOMEBODY PLEASE HELP ME DOWN?" Dakota called out. Please...anybody.Quote: Looks like Julie forgot her Dakota balloon up in a tree. If you would be so kind to help him out? Or not, You can laugh at his misfortune too. I would.If you want to help Dakota, roll 1 100 sided dice and Rp the results out from below. 8D If not, Yes. Point and Laugh. I still would.1- 20: There's some convient objects around that you can throw at him! Maybe that will help get him down. Dakota: OUCH!-Oh well okay, maybe not 21 - 40: You decide to throw your WEAPON at Dakota. Now your weapon is stuck in a tree, congrats. 41 - 60: Lucky enough, Someone decided to bring a ladder but it's too short to scale where Dakota is. You can leave him since you can't reach him right? 61 - 80: For those mountain men/women of the group, you decide to scale the tree's trunk into the bushes and untangle Dakota. YAY! You now have your very own Dakota Balloon! 81 - 100: For some reason, cutting down the tree makes all the sense in the world to get him down, but in your hunt for looking for a axe, you ask the wrong person (Julie) and she sends you to the netherlands (IDEK). Sorry!

New weapon new weapon new weapon. That, littered with occasionally the words "best game ever" and "this should upgrade my gearscore considerably" was pretty much the only thing Justin was thinking when he walked down the path, axe-shaped weapon still in his hand -
- Oh hello. A balloon person. Oh oh oh, was this a hidden quest?
Justin stared up, way up, and then gave them a wave, just to show that he acknowledged them. They didn't seem in the mood to wave back however, or maybe they were just not programmed to react to playable characters. Whatever the case, he would solve this hidden quest.
Scenario check: floating person stuck in tree, far away from talking range, clouds were heavy, perhaps it was going to rain. Clearly, the best way to get them down was the fastest way, by cutting them down. He looked around for any signs of any quest items that would help him on this quest. Nothing. That's odd, maybe he had to search further?
"Fear not my good sir, I will get you down!" Justin yelled as he saluted Dakota with his axe weapon and hopped down the path, in search for the correct item to complete this hidden quest.

Gale was not expecting, when he made his way around the grounds of Deus Ex Machina, to find what looked like a Dakota-shaped balloon stuck up in a tree.
Confused Gale was confused.
"Er," said Gale. "What exactly...are you doing up there, might I ask?"
He glanced around, looking for something, anything to climb up the tree with; there was a ladder sitting a short distance away, but when he pulled it over to the tree, it was just that - short.
"Well," said Gale, shrugging and resisting the very strong urge to laugh. "Guess I can't help you - sorry!"

Marcus still under the effects of being 'AN ADULT' from one of Julie's cookies was killing time, wondering when the moon party had turned into another round of 'bad idea'. Oh right, around when Dakota invited Julie. Seeing Gale try to help the trainee, Marcus figured it would be nice to at least say hi. And pay his respects to the dead. "So I think we've all learned a valuable lesson today." He motioned back to the way he'd come. "One, never trust Julie. Two. Never trust Julie, Three- wow Gale you are really short. I never really noticed before. Er I digress. Dakota. Have you learned your lesson about Julie?"

Clarice's original intention was to just stick Raeg in the tree and give one of the doctor's little perverts something to slide down. Sadly, she use a bit too much force this time...at least it missed taking off any of Dakota's parts. At the mention of Julie, she rushed off to go try and contain the other assistant, leaving her sword stuck up in the tree, hanging ominously over those on the ground.

Clearly the only way to reach Dakota was with a ladder, right? So when Eva stumbled across the scene of Gale trying to get at Dakota with the too-short ladder, the girl already considered her poor friend a lost cause. The least she could do was keep him company though, right?
Moving towards the base of the tree, she beamed up at the boy, fluttering her fingers in greeting. "How's the view up there, Gumdrop? Hang in there! I'm sure someone will bring a tall enough ladder to get you down!" Or, you know, they could form a human tower by sitting on each others shoulders, but that sounded...
...Actually, that sounded kind of fun, but Eva didn't think that anyone else was going to agree (and she was probably right).

Tree issues? call CHAINSAW MANMANMAN
It was just a simple patrol route that Leon took, around the perimeter and keeping an eye out for anything strange. Now he just had to make the clarification that a Dakota shaped balloon fell under the category of "strange."
Still the vigilant life hunter made the trek closer and picked up a broken off branch from the floor.
And gave Dakota a couple of jabs to its potentially helium inflated tummy.
*poke* "Hey." *poke, poke* .......................
*pokepokepokepokepoke* It really was too much fun as he started to grin from the action.
It took a moment of focus, and mostly from him accidentally breaking the tree branch and therefore ruining his fun time; but the string that kept the hunter anchored to the world finally came into sight.
The wheels began to slowly turn in his brutally injured head before he weighed his options.
"Climb or chop the whole damn tree down?" he said in a slow drawl, tilting his head at the poor sight of the Dakota balloon.
But Nid was still asleep in the recesses of the boxers mind. Climbing it was. With a grunt of effort, Leon began to claw his way up the trunk and shimmied as close as he could from a lower and thicker branch and tugged at the string gingerly.
Calloused, rough fingers soon found itself holding onto a delicate string, and refused to let go before he would have to explain why a young trainee was somewhere in the stratosphere.
And then the tree branch he had his felterweight toned body on, broke from under him.
O__O

There was a commotion somewhere, Ofelia could just feel it, and so the young woman found herself wandering around trying to locate the strange and powerful call of something hilarious happening. Rue was bitching in her head about the sudden change of plans, not that the pair had made plans anyway, and soon they found themselves in an area full of others and a person up in a tree. Did that person need to get down? First of all, why were they up in a tree to begin with?
" . . . .are ya stuck?" Obviously they were stuck or people wouldn't be trying to help get them down. Ofelia liked to state the obvious quite a bit and she glanced around to see if there was something she could use. She was wearing shoes so she didn't feel like climbing, there didn't look like there was an axe or anything around, and ladders weren't working. So, spotting something fun, she did the next best thing.
She chucked a rock at the poor boy and winced as she smacked him so hard in the face. So, very hard in the face. "Oops. Sorry 'bout that."

Marcus was watching it play out like a train wreck. "See Dakota, this why next time you throw a party do it in secret. Also, I promise to help you should you be kidnapped by our division assistant again. But I confess." He smiled. "This really is far to amusing."

Somedays, Dakota wondered if the world hated him. It was like, if it could go wrong it would. He looked down to see Gale first and sighed relief. Gale was a good kid, he could and would get him down right?
Right? Wrong. "Gale I really appreciate your help but....you need to grow...or find a taller ladder...." He choked out before wiggling.
The next to show up was Marcus who proceeded to laugh. Dakota gave him the most pitiful stare ever. "But boss, I was trying to be niceeee. Okay, how was I too know she give us drugged pastry treats." He whined as he started swing himself. "Besides your got to be all manlier too....I'm a balloon."
The situation didn't get any better as Clarice's giant a** sword came crashing down the branches, Dakota barely managed even a small movement of losing anything important as the sword knicked him.
Then he was assulted by a rock and oh sweet Jesus Eva was seeing it all.
"The view would be nicer if you were a balloon with me Eva." He winked at her before it happened.
Thank god for Leon.
"Bro. Your a life saver...." And then the world hated him again. As he was pulled down through the branches with Leon, he could only think one thing, if Leon let him go....he'd be done for.
Maybe it was for the best. If he had to continue with the shennagins....he didn't know what rose to do.
"Incoming! Please don't let me go stranger savior."

Marcus looked at Leon, sighed, pat the man shoulder and said. "I am really sorry. I think this makes Dakota the second moonie to cling to you. Speaking of which-" Dakota got another amused look. "Its alright to be nice to Julie but lesson learned. b***h is crazy and I often wonder how the hell hasn't ended up killing everyone yet. That said, I wish you luck with trying to to float up into the atmosphere and dying from either cold or oxygen deprivation. Depending how fast, you might die quickly or slowly. Either way it would probably be when you were passed out."
So kind. Apparently 10 year old Marcus was a touch pessimistic. "Also, I am taking back that pizza."

Leon learned a couple of things in that moment.
1) : Dakota balloon was a horrible balloon.
2) : Gravity was a complete, total b***h.
he was just doing something nice when the ground decided to rush up and meet him with a hefty thud.
Chin, please meet ground, you two are now best buddies. The sturdy life hunter let of a massive groan as he laid there on the ground, Dakota floating a good foot above him. lucky b*****d, defying gravity and its laws. "Yer welcumf" came the low growling reply from the earth that the boxers face was nestled into.
At least there wasn't electricity this time.

Dakota grinned as he floated over Leon, turning to look down at the boy before resting his hand on his chin. "Sorry bro, though what Marcus said. I owe you a favor bro, anytime anyplace."
Then he turned to Marcus and glared. "That pizza is forfeit in my room. Unless you wanna stay and eat it together, plus we still have all the soda Ceres brought over...." Dakota looked at Leon before taking a breath, "You like Pizza bro? If we get there before my boss does, we can eat it all......."

Leon weakly managed to pull his head from the ground, at least high enough to stare at the floating Dakota. "I nearly shatter my jaw and you want to offer pizza?" he said blanklyand stared into dakota's innocent, glossy eyes. damn helium brat, who could say no to that face. "Alright." he said shrugging at the duo and gingerly picked himself from the ground. "Long as the pizza won't turn me into some kind of pepperoni or i start talking in some horrible fake Italian accent, I'm in." And he thought life had all the weird experiments. He still marveled at the Dakota balloon that was now tied to his wrist. it was being like a kid again. :3 cept when Dakota pissed him off, he could punch it and have him come back for more.
