Welcome to Gaia! ::

"Lie to me!" demanded Claw again. He gave another sudden tug, and hollered again. "You can say anything for me to let go- as long as it's not true!" With ease Claw ignored Nariko's tears; in fact, he was enjoying seeing the kitsune struggle. Claw was determined now for Nariko to lie when she had said she couldn't.

"Lie, dammit!" He yelped at her again. "Say something that's not true! Say you can swim, say you like that random lady's ugly sunglasses, say we're going to get out of here soon!" He insisted again. To get this girl to say something untruthful would be something to brag about. Until then... it appeared he had the upper hand over her.

"Claw let go of me, I'm warning you!"Nariko sreamed back at him and she tried to pull back but that led to pain shooting though her body and so she was stuck as she was with Claw haveing control over her."Please Claw let go!"

"We won~" Higis spoke, hopping up and down while using Mickey's shoulders for support, "Now we'll go look for your-" Before the boy could finish his statement though, he suddenly tilted forward into the girl's chest. He was exhausted, even if he didn't show it on the outside and he hadn't eaten enough things with a lot of sugar in it.
Basa and Ran looked at each other, both knowing what was the most likely outcome to happen. Of course, it wouldn't help Higis wake up anyway. Shorn was the only one out of the guys that looked like he might reach over to try to grab the boy.

Shorn and Ran looked a little relieved that what they thought would happen did not, though Basa, on the other hand, looked somewhat disappointed. Higis was resting peacefully, his face looking even more child-like as he slept (though he would be very displeased if it was mentioned when he was conscious.) "We should get him back to the Sweet Breeze before we go looking for anyone," Ran laughed as Basa went to go claim the prize from the judges.

"It shouldn't be too far from here. He just played too hard is all," Ran laughed, "We should have gotten some more cream between games."
"At least he's shut up," Basa retorted as he came back to the group with a trophy and a bag of gold coins.
"So we finally got it," Ran commented, "I bet it's good craftsmanship too. That trophy was made up in Espona."

"Just drag him by the feet," Basa told her when she switched him into her arms, "It's his fault for using up all that energy anyway. Besides, his inn isn't too far from here."
"You're so mean," Ran laughed.
"At least I'm not a f**."
"What? Are you saying I am?!"
"You're a noble so it's completely possible."
"Oh you're dead!"
The two blondes ran forward towards the inn though they seemed to be exchanging punches and kicks along the way. Still, despite the violence, they had large grins on their faces. The group seemed to always be fighting amongst each other but it was all in good fun.

Shorn had followed after Mickey, silently making sure that no one would sneak up from behind and grab her. Ran and Basa hadn't even thought of that before they went picking on each other.
When the group made it to the Sweet Breeze Inn though, the building was the exact same one that Hari and the group were staying at. The two fighting boys went in but not even a minute had passed before they were running out, being chased by a woman about Basa's age with a broom.
"You idiots! You're going to scare off the customers with all your stupid fighting! Why don't you grow up?" the young woman shouted after them. The guys were still laughing though they had their hands up to keep from being whacked by the broom. Basa was constantly getting hit by the straw end of the broom but Ran seemed to have dodged the swipes at him.
"Monster! You're never gonna get married at this rate!"
"BASA!"
