Fauve looked down at her hands 'I know I said I wouldn't run off again, but I wouldn't have done it if I didn't have a good reason.. I just had to go, and I wasn't gone long. I won't run off again like that, I know you prolly don't believe me, but I won't alright? you just have to trust me. I love you and Aunt Haisyn and my Sissa... my sissa means the world to me.' Fauve felt like crying.
The red head looked at Haisyn and smirked a little bit, she reached over and ruffled Haisyn's hair, "Yeah you be careful yourself understand.. I don't know what I would do with the both of them... alone..." Merci sighed and moved over pulling the little girl closer to her. "Listen Fauve, I'm just worried that something is going to happen to you. That I'm going to lose you, I can't handle that, I'm sure Ashy feels the same way. You have to be just a little bit more responsible, not just for yourself, but for the people that love you."
Fauve looked at Ashy and reached out a hand, Ashy didn't seem jealous of her. Not in the very least... Lyra was wrong, she just had to be wrong. Ashy was her best friend ever... but the way she was acting before....
Merci arched a brow and looked around the house.. "Where's Verran?"

Ash took Fauve's hand, smiling. I'm sorry... I was a little mad before... It wasn't you, really, I was mad at everybody for being so mean after they found us. I just didn't like you leaving without me... I don't ever wanna lose you.
Haisyn sighed and let her head roll back to rest on the back of the chair she was sitting in. "He's been gone since last night. I didn't really realize it until sometime this morning because of what was going on with the girls. I should have noticed, he's not the type to miss a party, especially one that's got mostly women attending..." She sat up and crossed her arms over her knees. "I know he can take care of himself in moderate situations, but some of the stuff out here... We probably need to go look for HIM now." She covered her face with her palm for a moment, seemingly embarrassed. "I get frustrated with him and sometimes I'm not sure I really want him around... but I miss him now and I'm worried. I guess I need my brother whether I like it or not."
She stood and grabbed her weapon, and then handed Ash her wakizashi. "We'll go start that perimeter check from earlier, and if we happen to find his trail, we'll go track him down and beat him for leaving without saying anything, a'ight?"
Do I gotta get leashed again? Ash frowned at the rope still dangling from her wrist. I'm NOT gonna run off...
"I guess not. This'll be your chance to prove that I can trust you again, alright?"
She nodded. I'll prove it, you'll see.
Haisyn turned to Merci. "You gonna need anything before we go?"

Merci looked around and shook her head, "Nah, just wanted to check on Uriel but I think he's still sleeping soundly..." Merci got up and looked at Fauve "am I going to need to leash you?"
Fauve shook her head and got up 'Ummm... can I have a bath soon?'
Merci shook her head "Well see if you run off.. tonight if your good I'll give you a bath and brush your hair for you.."

Haisyn nodded and headed out the door. "You girls wanna call the boys and let them know we're going now?"
Ash stuffed the wakizashi through the belt she borrowed from Haisyn and shrugged. Hey Gali, Kasai, we're gonna head out now if you wanna join us still.

Fauve looked over at Ashy and stopped in the doorway taking both of her hands.. she shut everyone else out and whispered quietly so only she could hear 'I met someone in the forest Ashy.... someone different, a mask.. but.. I can't describe it... I want to tell you about it but not now where someone might hear..' She let go and started walking back after her guardian.. hoping Ash will understand
Merci folded her arms and stopped watching the two girls.. she looks after Hai and says "So... doing the fence before the school or are we all splitting up into different teams? few of us working on the fence and a few on the school?"

((Gonna god-mod for a second, forgive me luv^_^)) Even as Ashy started to reply she started to feel a little light headed. She had been stressed out by her sister's disappearing, and figured the strange feeling was relief. Until the world seemed to blur in front of her and her legs gave out. She fell to the floor, her body taking on a strange pink and gold glow as it started to shift. Unconscious she lay on the floor, a teenager once more.  ((I figure I'll give you something to work off of rather then a prank this time. Don't want to ruin the anst^_^))

Haisyn was about to say something to Merci when Ash hit the ground. After Haisyn figured out what just happened she just sort of... stared... "I... holy crap." She looked plaintively around the room as if hoping someone could catch her world, which had suddenly gone spinning again. "Geeze..."
She sat on the floor beside Ash, fiddling with one of her not-quite-little girl's curly strands of hair absently. "Merci, how about you take Fauve and the boys out for a quick check of the perimeter? I'm not sure if I can leave now..."

Ice suggested a one room school house type thing. I think that would work well for our needs now. If you want we could put huge shutter type windows on it so they can be opened in the summer and the kids can see out. Then in the winter they can be closed to allow warmth well working.
Teaching them is going to be the hard part. If we do use Mycroft we need to figure out how they will talk to him. I liked Pam' idea of setting them up to him via a computer network. What I am worried about with that is where are the computers going to come from. I have about three completed computers in my things, one belongs to Kasai and the other is my personal.
*sighs* Do you have any ideas?
*kicks at the dirt and hopes that Fauve isn't getting chewed out too badly*

Fauve stopped dead and turned back around, she reached out for her sister
Merci caught her charge lifting her up off the ground. "Come on Fauve, leave Haisyn and Ashirha alone for now alright."
Fauve kicked her legs and screamed at Merci 'Lemmie go! Thats my sister lemmie go! I wanna see her!'
Merci ignored the kicking girl and nodded to Hai, "I'll get the boys and check things out.. you take care of your... uh... yeah.. take care of Ash..."

Haisyn stood up and grabbed Fauve's flailing hands. "Fauve! Listen. You can help Merci check out the perimeter. Make sure it's going to be safe while your sister is sleeping. I don't think she's going to wake up for a little while, probably not until after you get done and come back. We can all maybe cook something special for her to eat when she wakes up later, and you can get cleaned up before then too. I can... feel it. She's not waking up for a couple of hours atleast. She can't protect you right now, so you need to protect her. And you have to look after Merci, too, don't forget that. You know how clumsy she can be." She winked slightly at Merci, hoping that might help with the situation somewhat. And it was all true, really, so it didn't hurt to say it.

Fauve stopped and stared at Haisyn.. she blinked her blue eyes at her sister's guardian and looked back up at Merci, well... She didn't like the thought of Merci going out there alone, she wasn't as resourceful as Fauve or her sister.... and.. and if Ashy was going to be asleep Fauve should make sure she's going to be alright...
Merci looked at Haisyn and arched her brows "What should I look for, as a trail to follow for Verran... I mean as long as I'm out there I can keep my eyes open..
Fauve didn't want Ashy to see her like this.. Ashy was so much prettier then Fauve now... and to let Ashy see her all dirty... and lanky haired... it just wouldn't do.. Lyra had to be wrong, Ashy didn't have anything to be jealous of, she was much prettier then Fauve would ever be... These thoughts kept her quiet long enough for Merci to talk to Haisyn.

Haisyn smiled at Fauve. "Cheer up kiddo. You can pay your sister back some for looking out for you now. I know she'll appreciate it when she wakes up." She squeezed Fauve's hands once comfortingly and turned to Merci.
"As for Verran... well, any abnormal trails, boot prints - I doubt any of the girls have boots with mini-cleats on the bottom, especially that size - and... a really odd 'buzz' in the air. Fauve would probably pick it up more than you would if you passed it, I think the ki-," she glanced at Ash and changed descriptions mid word, "masks are more sensitive to that sort of thing. Verran is what we call a 'Battery' back home. He produces a lot more energy than he uses up, especially since he doesn't really have powers the way I do. When he hasn't been using it for a while it has a tendency to leave a bit of a trail, sort of a staticy feeling in the air..."
She shrugged, looking slightly baffled. "It's really hard to explain..."

Pam had gone through almost all of the buildings in the community, a few that were obviously occupied... and others that obviously weren't. She was growing tired of all of the house searching. She was sort of picky about the place she lived. It should be clean and somewhat nice looking.
Pam sighed and glared at the door infront of her. It was the only building she hadn't checked and if it didn't suit her tastes... she didn't know what she would do...
She stepped inside and blinked, relief washing through her. It was perfect.

Merci nodded and grinned a little bit "Alright commander Fierra... I'll return with recon reports and hopefully news of the Fierra gone AWOL" Merci mock saluted as well as she could with Fauve in her arms.
Fauve looked up and arched a brow.... did her guardian really have a sense of humor? She thought so at first, but she'd always been so wrapped up in everything... and.. then she was injured... then worried.. This was really the first time Fauve had seen Merci semi relaxed. She had to admit she liked it better then the tightly wound version
Merci turned on her heel and looked down at Fauve "You can tell the boys if they want to help that I'll be starting out behind Ice's place and working my way from there. We're going to need to take some measurements, leave room for expansion should we need it...." Merci seemed lost in her own thoughts as she walked, mask girl cradled in her arms safely.
Fauve rolled her eyes to the sky and called out for the boys 'Kasai? I don't know who else she means by boys, but Merci says that she's going to start checking the perimeter behind Ice and Io's house. If you want to come with us then you can meet us there.'

Haisyn watched them leave, and then went over to Ash again. It didn't seem right to just leave her in the floor, so she carefully picked the... young woman up. She turned and strode carefully to her room, and set the sleeping beauty on the bed, pulling the blankets up securely around her chin. Ash, of course, stuck one of her arms back out over the blankets and clutched them up beneath her cheekbone, but remained fast asleep. It made Haisyn smile.
"You're too much like me, Ash. Except you weren't forced to kill people..." She sighed, and dug through her things for her little stuffed dragon and set it beside the sleeping female. "I'll be right outside if you need me..."
