Welcome to Gaia! ::

Shura shook her head as she escaped from her mother at long last, having to go through the 'worst torture ever' that was getting her hair brushed and put up into buns. There really was nothing worse if you asked her because it involved so much sitting still! Who wanted to sit still when they could be running around, climbing up on things, making trouble, getting dirty, and various other fun things? Certainly not Shura so she was glad to have her freedom back once again. If nothing else at least she wasn't made to wear a dress today! Instead she was just wearing a simple tank top and shorts, which were far easier to move in.

Coming to pause Shura looked down the hallway she found herself starring at her brother who was... looking rather suspicious. What was Dovian up to? Given where he was standing she supposed she could hazard a guess. A rather wide smile appearing on her lips she started forward as quietly as she could, wanting to see if she could sneak up on and startle him. As she got within arm's reach she reached out poking him in the sides before asking, "Whatca doing, Dovi!"

Shura gave a toothy grin, pleased to get such a grand reaction out of her 'baby brother' before she crossed her arms over her chest, watching him as he set to looking around, making sure that nobody had noticed his squeak save for Shura herself. It didn't seem as though either of their parents had come running so maybe they were just used to her teasing her brother? Could be possible she thought to herself before turning back to the room that Dovian was hovering in front of.

"Trying to get in the secret room, huh? You're acting pretty daring today, Dovi." Shura said, lifting a hand up to pet him on the head before she moved to stare at the door too, "So you're actually going to go in this time? Do you think you can get in without anyone noticing?" There as the problem of their parents, of course, but there was also Profit who could be a bit of a tattle tale. It was as though she'd been trained to tell on them or something when they were getting into too much trouble. They really needed to start bribing the big blue bird or something.

Shura shifted, resting her hands on her hips, starring at the door as Dovi spoke of how their mother never went inside the mysterious room and that it was kept closed by their father. They had been told on many occassions that they weren't to go in the room. Hrm... meaning that anything and everything could be in there. Anything including... Shura's eyes seemed to light up, her lips spreading into a bit of a smile as she stepped closer to her brother, a perzi like grin on her lips.

"You know... if you listen really closely I can actually hear... is that scratching? Do you think Daddy is keeping monsters in there to sell?" She asked in a hushed tone, leaning in closer to the door, tilting her head as though trying to listen more closely to the sounds within the room.

"Yep! Lots of interesting monsters yep in the spare room until someone comes to pick them up!" Surely that couldn't be the case since it was just something that she was making up... yet here she was getting a little on edge herself. No, no... she shouldn't getting scared when the monsters were something that she was making up! That would just be silly she told herself as she rested her hands on her hips, starring at the door to the spare room. She had to focus so that she could scare Dovian, not herself!

Turning to look at Dovian she opened her mouth, bout to say something more when a shadow fell over the two of them. Shura froze in place, hearing claws clicking against the ground, her eyes going wide, "One got out!" She whispered to Dovian... a moment before a not so sneaky Profit gave a chirp, trying to figure out what the twins were up to. After realizing who it was that was standing over them Shura whirled around, starring up at the big bird, "Really, Profit? No sneaking up on us!"

Shura glanced over at her brother as he clung to her while begging Profit of all creatures 'not to eat them' which was rather cute on his part. Did he think that if he asked that a monster would decide not to eat them? He didn't even say 'please' which was supposed to be a magical word. Lifting a hand she ruffled his hair and said, "It's fine, I doubt that we are what she sees as something yummy to snack on." Though she did find herself wondering what Profit did see as tasty as far as snacks went. She'd have to ask their daddy.

At the mention of Dovian wanting their mom Shura gave a shake of her head, "No! If you go running to mom now then they will know you want to peek in the spare room!" And they would know that she was teasing Dovi again and that she'd gotten him to believe that there might actually be monsters in said spare room. Not something that she wanted to chance happening since she might get a time out or something.

"Come on, we will find something else to do that doesn't involve spare rooms or monsters." She told her brother, patting him on the head.

Lifting a hand up Shura set to petting her brother's hair in a gentle manner, a smile appearing on her lips, "It's alright there, Dovi! I'm sure that things will be fine now that Profit is here." Maybe she'd teased him a bit too much since now he had tears in his eyes? He really was soft and squishy, wasn't he? Meaning that she really needed to get tougher to make sure that nobody else other then Shura herself would be able to pick on him. If anyone else were to even try she would give them a swift kick in the backside! Dovi was her brother after all, as well as her best friend, and only she was allowed to pick on him.

Walking along, wrapping her arms around one of her brother's arms she said, "How about we go outside and see about climbing on Aatos! That is always a bunch of fun." She loved how tall she got to feel when she was standing up on top of his shell. It was as though she was the biggest, bestest person in the entire world! So that was what she felt that the two of them should do now!

Now that they had a plan, or at least she had a plan, she started to lead the way toward the front door. Behind them the giant blue bird Profit was quick to follow along after them, ever seeming as though she wanted to keep an eye on them. It was a task given to her by Bushi and therefore it was the most important task that she had! The little ones needed protecting in her mind and she'd take on the task like a large, feathery version of a guard dog.

Shura gave a bit of a grin, "Alright! You don't have to go up too high if you don't want to, Dovi!" She was going to get as high up as possible personally. The higher up she could get the better since she was able to see really far from the top of Aatos's shell. After a moment of thought she said, "I wonder if he would let me stand on his head! That would be so much fun!" It might be hard to balance since his head moved a lot but that could make it into a really fun challenge for her!

Turning to glance at Dovian she seemed to think on it for a moment before nodding her head, "Yeah, if we bring him some treats he will be even more friendly then usual!" They could buy him off with treats! It was a great idea! Glancing toward Profit as she followed along after them she added, "We should grab something for Profit too so she doesn't feel left out. Maybe we can find some vegetable scraps! Those are always Aatos's favorite and Profit likes them too!"
