"Hide and seek, like he does." Finn nodded his head at Pumpkin, laughter in his voice. He walked a bit through the snow, his paws pounding through it. His eyes looked around, all he saw was snow and lots of it. He still had no idea what this place was called and he still wasn't entirely comfortable in it.
Sure he found his companion again and also found a Minya but still he didn't like this place. Perhaps it was just the cold that got to him, where he was from there was no snow just endless darkness with forests and a purple like sky with fainter mist. He did remember seeing these mountains in the fair distance and how Pumpkin wanted to see them if another of their kind lurked about there. But there was no one.
He hated this cold, he wanted to go back where he came from. His eyes looked about, his mind deciding on what to do. "To find somewhere that is warm is to get off this mountain. I'm heading back down, and preferably to try and find a warmer area, perhaps the Garden."
Pumpkin giggled. "I don't mind the cold at all, big baby." Finn glared at him and Pumpkin giggled even harder. The Chinua sat up and came up beside Finn, his head reaching to about half of Finn's legs. He grinned at Arael cheerfully, his eyes bright with some mischief shining in them. "You going to come with us Arael?" Pumpkin asked, hoping that his new friend would say yes. "It could be like an adventure!."
Pumpkin nodded energetically, his body bouncing lightly on his cloved hooves and then back on his paws. Even if Finn was a real coward and didn't like the snow, Pumpkin did want to go elsewhere. He wanted to see more and cause perhaps some havoc wherever this main Garden was. It would be fun, like a game.

"Oh?" The gardens, perhaps that was where Nash was. She flicked her tail around and nodded. " Of course! I love adventures!" She hoped to one side, then back to where she was. "How long does it take to get there?" She asked as she walked towards the other too.
She didn't mind the snow, though, she wasn't sure if this was where she lived. She just remembered running into Nash in a forest. She new that he was close, though she didn't remember if there was snow or not. She'd been having too much fun with pumpkin she totally forgot about where she had walked from.
"Is the garden pretty?" She asked. Unsure of what a garden really was. Maybe it was like a place full of grass and hills? Or a place where they had tons of flowers. Nah, just tons of grass, she bet.

Pumpkin moved his head to the side. "I dunno how long it takes." He looked up at Finn.
"Well, it didn't take too long to come here so it shouldn't be too long to get their." He nodded, "Pretty? I've never used that word before." He shrugged and laughed slightly. Finn moved forward a bit, "I think it's this way, or at least I hope it's this way." He chuckled, hoping that he was right.
Pumpkin bounced lightly, going off ahead of the other two. He grinned brightly at them both, he was excited to do this.

Arael followed them slightly skipping and walking at the same time. It was strange, how could one not use pretty? Maybe it was because he was male, or because he hadn't seen anything that he would call pretty? She really didn't know.
Well, how could she if he didn't tell her. She flicked her tail as she silently walked with them. It was strange to walk next to someone who was so much bigger then you. Nash wasn't even close to becoming this big. She didn't thing she'd run into another as big as him, unless it was the same spieces.
With her curiousity running through her head she looked up to Finn. "Are there creatures... bigger then you?" She asked. Wanting to make sure that she didnt' have to worry about running into something bigger on accident.

Finn grew agitated at the silence, he hated them just like he hated being alone. It always made him feel so uncomfortable. Even Pumpkin wasn't saying anything and he usually talked and talked and talked for hours on end. Heck even Finn talked a lot, which was hard with Pumpkin interrupting him every few seconds.
So why wasn't he speaking now? Was he really so nervous by Arael? It didn't make much sense to him except for the fact that sure she wasn't from where they were from but that didn't make much sense. Gah he was always so happy, and he felt happy yet happy Hespierdens were supposed to talk or at least Finn thought so.
When he heard Arael speak he was instantly relieved. They had been walking for a bit and Finn was becoming increasingly more upset with the silence. He breathed a loud sigh, his mouth slipping into a sort of smirk. "Course there's nothing bigger than me, I'm the biggest creature around." He cocked his head with pride, and winked at her.
However he really had no idea if there were creatures bigger than him, he'd never met any bigger Hespierdens before. That made him a bit nervous, what if something bigger had heard him. That would serve him right, trying to act all cocky and cheery, while something huge ate him for dinner. Finn gulped, before grinning again. He could take it though, he hoped.
"Finn was right, it didn't take too long to see some grass and plantlife again." Pumpkin finally said something, his eyes looking over the cliff without any fear of falling. He took in the sight of a clearing, tall grass was all about. Mostly dead where the mountains started but further on he could see some green if he squinted. And trees filled with leaves and food! Pumpkin grinned, he loved eating.
Maybe he could catch a small creature to snack on? And Finn and Arael could eat whatever they wanted. Pumpkin cheered silently, turning away from the edge of the cliff and running goofily across the snow. He slipped and skidded along, trying to get to the alive plantlife as fast as he could, even if he looked like a fool while doing so and falling on his bottom loads of times while struggling to get there.

Arael smiled excitively. That made her feel so much better. She didn't want to run into anything bigger then him. At least, not until she was a bit older and could help herself.
She turned her attention quickly to Pumpkin as he ran to the side of the cliff and looked down. She edged over there to see what he was looking at. Sure enough she saw brown, then it led into green. Ahh. She'd seen that color before, perhaps it was where Nash was?
She had no idea about it, but didn't think to hardly on it. "Oh! It's great! I love grass!" She said as she looked towards Pumpkin again who seemed to have went running and then soon slipping and sliding down the mountain. Well that seemed fun, yet she wasn't as small as him and didn't think that would be too wise.
"Wow! He can really move!" She said looking up at Finn as she walked with him. No sence in leaving him to walk slowly down the side of the mountain. Though, she really did want to go running with Pumpkin. She smiled up at Finn. "One day, I hope to be at least half your size." She said giggling. Oh, how much she could see if she was taller. She flicked her tail back and forth careful not to hit Finn with it.

"He's quick but not as quick as me. Though that's obvious cause I'm bigger and all." He laughed, walking down the mountain. He was glad when he saw the grass, finally he would be away from the cold, crisp air that surrounded these mountains. Came with the snow he supposed, he shook some snow off his back.
It's snowing faintly. He observed thoughtfully, looking up at the sky. It was getting darker still, the sun's rays weren't as bright anymore. His paws moved swiftly through the snow, he looked longingly at Pumpkin. He wanted to run down the mountain too, even if he tripped and fell, it would be fun. "You'll get bigger for sure, much bigger than Pumpkin also." He chuckled lightly, knowing Pumpkin would be a little annoyed with that.
Pumpkin leapt into the air, and then falling back into the grass. As much as he loved snow, he loved grass more. He layed down and rolled, giggling to himself as he did this. It was getting darker, he noticed and he pouted. He wanted it to stay light forever, more time to play with his new friend and Finn. Where were they anyway? Pumpkin turned his head and saw Arael and Finn going slowly down the hill. "Hurry up!!" He yelled, bouncing up.
"We have to play some more before dark!" Pumpkin knew that when it got too dark, he and Finn would have to leave. But where would Arael go? Did she have a home too? Pumpkin sure hoped she did because it got cold at night, she needed to be somewhere warm and safe. Pumpkin liked the dark though he didn't like being completely alone in it, his overactive imagination tended to see frightening shapes in the dark. He looked over his shoulder fearfully, as if expecting something to come and eat him. Seeing nothing, he relaxed.

Arael looked up at Fin. "Even bigger then you?" She asked excitivly. She was sure she'd never get that big since Nash wasn't. She smiled and looked towards pumpkin as he called towards them.
Indeed, it was getting dark. She hadn't even thought of the time. She didn't worry to much. Nash always found her before night fall. Or she always found him. She laughed and jumped towards where pumpkin was. "Yeah!" She said in reply. She didn't really get scared of the dark. She hadn't ran into anything scary, so indeed there wasn't anything for her to be afraid of.
She flung her tail to the left, then to the right and tried pouncing at Pumpkin. She didnt' care if she landed on him or not. It was always just fun to pounce. Plus, it always got the other to pounce back.

((OCC: I was stupid and didn't read all the Kirishitsuno indepth information, so I missed the part about speaking telepathically DX. I'm just pretending at the moment that whenever he talks it's telepathic, but I won't write it like that cause it's sort of pointless now. Though Dawnie said it was alright so I suppose it's okay >.>.))
"Certainly not bigger than me." He called out, as he watched Arael run after Pumpkin. The Kirishitsuno smiled faintly, before charging after them. His paws dug into the ground as he raced forward, wind whipped against him and blew his mane and tail back. It was getting dark, he was beginning to blend into the darkness. The grass was closer as was the forest.
Pumpkin looked behind him and saw Arael coming closer. He gave an eep noise and ran away, trying to escape her clutches. But he wasn't as fast as her. His three eyes looked around at her once more and saw that she was trying to pounce on him.
He tried to pick up speed but failed, his eyes continued to look over his shoulder instead of looking in front of himself. And then came the tree root. He stumbled over it and fell in a heap on the floor, his tail up in the air.

(( 83 It's fine. She wouldn't have noticed much difference anyways. x3 ))
She flopped to the ground right behind him. She laughed and rolled away from the tree root that Pumpkin and tripped over. "You ok?" she asked laughing and looking at him upside down since she was now on her back. Her tail flicked ever few seconds as she pawed at the air towards him.
She looked up to see where Finn was and smiled at him. She gave a giggle and looked back at Pumpkin. "I say we have about ten minutes, then I have to find Nash again before he gets angry with me." She said rolling to her belly and sitting up. "Do you know a game that'll last ten minutes?" She asked.

Finn reached the pair of them, grinning at the group they made. It was odd, they were all different sizes and from different species. And yet they were fine with one another, still odd though. He chuckled silently at that.
His ears perked up at Arael's words and he nodded with response to them. "Ten minutes is fine, we've been out since the afternoon and it is almost dark out. And we..." His eyes stopped on Pumpkin who pouted, "Need to be getting back anyway. It's been a long day."
Pumpkin had laughed along with Arael, giggling at his clumsiness. But at Finn's words he pouted, he didn't want the day to end aready. "Back to owner?" Finn shook his head, "Then to Nightshade Valley?" His friend nodded.
He didn't want to sleep outside where it was all scary and where the shadows played nasty tricks on him. It was unfair! Pumpkin pouted still, his three eyes glaring at the sunset, which was beautiful to him, and inwardly glaring at Finn who was making him sleep in their homeland. Again.
He got to his paws, turning in a huff on Finn and instead towards Arael. "A game?" He looked about, thinking hard on what they could play. Correction, on what he and Arael could play because Finn was not joining them. "I'm....not sure." He ended lamely.
Pumpkin turned his head to the side, his small tuft of a tail drooped sadly. He didn't want the day to end, what if he never got to see Arael again? He knew he was acting childish but he really didn't want to say goodbye. He eyed the setting sun once more, and knew that the minutes were ticking away. He sniffed.

Arael looked from Finn to Pumpkin. He looked upset. Did he not want to play a game? Or was he upset because he didn't know what game to play? Her tail went back and forth slowly.
She Titled her head and looked at him. "What's wrong? Did I do something wrong?" It was a silly thing to ask, but it was always good to ask it just incase she did.

"Yes you did something wrong!" Pumpkin snapped at Arael, it was all her's and Finn's fault. "And Finn did too!" He turned away from them both, his eyes grew all teary and he sniffed loudly. It was such a good day to, well the start and middle were but the end not so much.
He rolled his eyes, Pumpkin was such a baby, they'd see the young one again most likely. Well if not both of them at least Pumpkin could, if only he'd realize that friends saw each other again, well usually. But in their case Finn had a strong feeling that they or at least Pumpkin would see the Minya child again. Pity he was acting like such a baby.
"Pumpkin you big baby." He sent. Seeing the flash of a teary eyed glare he laughed outloud. What a kid.

Arael blinked. She didn't think she'd be snapped at like that except from Nash. She looked down. "Sorry. I didn't mean to." She said in a hushed voice. She really didn't know what she did. Why was he so upset?
She looked up at Finn, not sure why he laughed. She hadn't noticed anything really except that she did something wrong...

"It's not your fault Arael, Pumpkin's just being a baby." He sent, shaking his head. Sometimes Pumpkin gave him a headache, he was a handle at moments.
He leaned over to Arael, making sure she would be the only one to hear. "He's worried that when the time is up he'll never see you again, so he's doesn't want to say good bye yet. Prolonging the time."
Nodding, he pulled away from her and went to lay down in some grass a bit away. He laid his head down, and closed his eyes. He was exhausted, the day did take a bit out of him. Maybe they should go back to the owner? That would please Pumpkin, if only slightly.
"Not a baby." He grumbled. He could sulk as long as he wanted, it was their fault and he was staying by his decision. But was Arael really upset? Oh how he wanted to look over his shoulder and see but he couldn't cause that would be cheating. Had to stay as angry as he could, then he wouldn't have to say goodbye!
