Esmeralda opened her eyes and yawned. She was on the cobble stone path of Traverse Town. But...how'd she get there? Perhaps she had rammed into something and become unconcious?
Sitting up easily, she was suddenly distracted from her groggy thoughts by something floating frantically before her.
Oh...Hook, it's you. When did you get so small? She wondered. For some strange reason, the talkative pirate captian failed to respond, though he would not stop circling her. Suddenly, Esme glaanced down at herself and gasped. She had...hands? And feet, and...and a proper body. It was too much to take in all at once.
Esme! Esmeralda! Are you listening to me? Or have you become as deaf as the other buffoons who don't know what we are? Hello? What happened to you? You're so...different. James tried desperately to contact Esme through their telepathy, but for some reason he could neither reach nor hear her. Oh well...I suppose you were right about us not being items forever, and though it was good to have your company, I suppose I'll be leaving now, seeing as I'm of no use to you anymore... Speaking mostly to himself, the dejected hook began to float away.
However, a delicate, mocha-skinned hand reached out to tap him, the gold bangles on her wrist jingling faintly. It reminded Hook terribly of Esme's tamborine jingles, but he wondered if that Esmeralda was gone. Yet when he turned to look at her, she smiled at him in such a way he realized she was the same. Just...in a new form.
Gradually, she rose to her feet, shaky at first. She nearly fell over, but managed to catch hold of Hook, who swereved in front of her at the right moment.
Watch it there...those feet don't look too stable. You think it wise to start trying to walk just yet?
"I-I..." Esmeralda spoke, trying out her mouth and voice. It had been a while since she remembered how to work them. Thinking had been enough as a tamborine. And she would miss being able to levitate. Still, at least now she had proper limbs and could communicate verbally. "Thank you, Hook," she managed, her teal eyes casting him a look of gratitude.

Minerva grinned as she walked around the slightly-familiar area, she was on a search for Puck, but figured that he wouldn't want to talk to her right now anyways. So now just wandering around, still carrying the shield, she was up for anything, maybe even meeting some friends and going for ice- oh?
Looking ahead she saw a pretty little girl with, there's that Hook! She wandered over to the two and frowned, the girl didn't look all that stable. "Hey, are you alright?" She questioned as she rushed over to help the girl to stand, a look of worry expressed openly on her face as she noticed that the little tamborine that was usually with the hook .

"Oh," Esmeralda turned at Minerva's voice with an astonished expression. "Whooa!" She nearly toppled over, but managed to steady herself thanks to the little witch.
"Thank you," she said slowly, once she was standing more or less. Suddenly, Esme recognized the girl who had looked so familiar... "You...you're M-minerva, right?"
What's she doing here?! Hook demanded, frantically darting about, equally surprised. Isn't that Puck's girlfriend he's always with? Then that means...where's the brat?! He's never far with her around... But of course, none of his words were audiable to either child.

Clark had came into town to look for Jean who still did not know how to use the cell that their mom gave them. "Jean!" He yells as he walks down the street "Gah why do I always have to watch her? Why can't Meg watch her...." He stops when he saw a girl in the street. He walks up to her "Have you seen a red head around here? About four or five years old?"

Minerva dropped the shield to the ground as she made sure the girl was stable, more or less anyways. "No problem, happy to help-"
Suddenly, a shocked expressed passed her her face "Y-yes, I am she, do I know you?" She looked from the girl to the little hook, something was weird, why was Hook with this little girl, and where was that tamborine?))

Esme paused and looked back and forth from the girl to the boy. they were both hauntingly familiar, and yet...she was she she had never seen the boy before.
"Uh..n-no, sorry," she told Clark, still a little slow with her speech. "Um...have we met before? You're so familiar..."
Hook floated down to examine the sheilf Minerva dropped, but much to his annoyance, he couldn't pick it up. It was shiny...possibly gold.
At Minerva's reaction, the tan-skinned girl smiled slightly. "N-not really, I...I uh, I just heard your name before is all...thank you so much..." She glanced down at her bare feet, where Hook was poking at the shield.
"I think you might have dropped something." As hard as it was for her to stand, Esme wasn't too keen on trying to bend just then. lest she fall over and pull Minerva down with her.

Clark reachs down and picks up Hook and shield. "You drop these" He hands then Esme. "Im Clark Kent" he smiles at her "Who are you?"
Just then Jean turn a corner and saw her brother with some other kids. She then picked up on Hook. Hello thereShe talks to him threw her mind wonding if he could understand her. She knew she had a gift for reading what people are thinking.

Teal eyes widened. "Clark...? Clark! I had no idea! Wait, that's you?!" She leapt at him, her arms spread out in a hug, but in her excitement unfortunely missed and began to fall.
Hook stiffened, then struggled in Clark's hands frantically. What?! Who's there?! Show yourself!! It couldn't be the boy; this voice was feminine. And yet...he could sense no items around...just a bunch of noisy children...wait...who was that?

He blinks as the girl hugs him "Um who are you?" He looks down at her "I don't know anyone really" He then looks at the other girl "help!" He lets the shied fall to the ground
Jean slowly came into view after Hook spock Im Jean Grey. I heard you. Im not sure if anyone else can hear you She then saw her brother and took the hook from him.

Shaking her head slightly at Clark and his question before looking at Esmerelda "heard my name?" Minerva didn't know many people, so how would she have heard of her?
She then turned to Clark "Clark Kent? It's nice to meet you Clark, I'm Minerva. As for the shield, you guys can just leave it on the ground."
As Esmerelda leapt at Clark, Minerva grinned "Hey, maybe we should get introductions over with before we tackle people, hm? What's your name?" She asked with a smile, watching at Jean took the hook from Clark.
"Hey, if you wouldn't mind, could you let him free? He can float on his own and I don't want him being held, in case is might be against his will." She spoke politely as she turned to Jean, "who are you?"

Esme winced as she fell and scraped her arms. "Oww...I...I forgot it hurt to fall," she said, smiling weakly as she tried to sit up.
"Sorry...my name is Esm..Esme..." she struggled to pronounce her name. "Esmeralda. I was a tamborine until recently, but for some reason...I seem to have...changed." She blushed at her confession. "I know it may be hard to believe, but it's the truth. Oh, Hook...leave those nice people alone!"
It's not me, its them! Hook exclaimed. They're talking to me now! None of you brats are supposed to hear me... James protested as he continued to struggle. He glared mentally at Jean. How is it you can hear me? Speak up! Can you not talk? did something go wrong when you changed from an item?

"Oh wow! You are that item!" He then hugs Esme again "Man I am glad to see you again and your such a pretty girl!" He blushs when he says that.
"Im Jean Grey. I am Clark's little sister and Hook is yelling or something. Can anyone else here him?" She looks at the Hook Im not sure why I am the only one that can hear you

Minerva's eyes widened "Esmerelda! You're the one who was with Puck..." Suddenly the pieces started to add up "It's not hard to believe, most people here were items before becoming children, it's only natural, don't worry about it!" She smiled at the other girl "you look so pretty, I should've figured you would've looked like a little gypsy girl from you being a tamborine as an item!"
She then turned to Jean and tilted her head "nope, only items can hear items, that's usually how it works. And it's nice to meet you Jean, I'm Minerva!" She said with a smile.

"An item? Nice to meet you Minerva" She smiles "I can hear him my head. I think I can also hear your thoughts as well. Im not sure why I can...." She lets Hook float around now. "I think my brother was an item. I was never one"

Esme blushed back. "And you're such a cute boy," she replied, hugging him back hard. "Not an item anymore." She giggled. "Never thought a beeping spaceship would turn into someone like you."
"It's good to meet you Jean! I thought Clark's only sister was Meg..."
Wait...what?! You're related? No way...you look nothing alike! Hook insisted sternly. And quit talking like that. You sound crazy. 'Can anyone else here him'...of course they can't! They've never been able to, unless they were items once...
Esme beamed at Minerva's connection. "Me? Wasn't it you who was with Puck? Every second of every hour of every day?" She laughed cheerfully. "Hook and I had to find our own fun."
"Really? Oh...yeah I think clark told me something about that...but we had just been guessing," Esme spoke thoughtfully. "Wow...you're so smart, Minerva. Morethan Puck likes to give you credit for while he blabs about you all day long...and now that I'm not so small, it's a lot easier to see you."
She blushed again. "Me? Pretty? You're beautiful! No wonder Puck likes you."
Hook piped up again. Cut that out! He's not your brother. If he's your brother, than that means Esme's my sister and Puck's my...that's just...no, I don't even want to think about it...Let me go! I DEMAND it!

"Beeping spaceship?" She tilted her head slightly, "how cute. I wish I was some kind of interesting item, then again, I wouldn't have met the people I did if I was an item."
Minerva's cheeks reddened slightly "Not every second, and certainly not anymore. He's mad at me, or... I don't know, well he left me." She shrugged and grinned, "he talks about me? Why would he do a thing like that?"
She then lifted her hands to cover her face, a small grin appearing under her palms "You're too kind, I'm not pretty, especially not prettier than you, but thank you for the compliment."
