Welcome to Gaia! ::

"えと。。。　でも。。。" Hana looked up to Yuuko who seemed to be enjoying herself with her sake. She smiled sheepishly and then looked to where Syaoran ran off to. "ちょっと　すみません。" And with that Hana took off after Syaoran. She couldn't get lost from him, now could she?!

When she rounded the corner to see him looking at the book, she swatted his arm to scold him. She then closed the book and pointed to the sticker on the side stating that it was part of the government/royal collection. "Can... unt... えと。。。 be... ca... ca .. u... cot. ((caught))." Hana continued to gesture that Syaoran should put it away before they get caught! The ball was just downstairs from them and they HAVE to meet up with the others. They can't afford to get caught now!

Hana then proceeded to drag Syaoran back to Yuuko and if she didn't talk to them again soon (seems she's busy talking to some other tall man in black...) then she'd proceed to take Syaoran to the banister where they could have a good view of the entrance to the main ballroom.

Syaoran's eye continued to give off a sharp pain. "My eye..." he said as he covered it with his right hand. "Hana-san...When do you think Sakura and the others will arrive?" 'I just hope I am not like this when Sakura arrives. She will be worried and I still need to get her feathers back.' he thought as he looked down from the banister.

"Hai..." Mi said, beaming at Ayumi's happiness. She kept a smile on, but suddenly felt something strange. It was an odd dimensional rift, and the pathway was still open...the only one that could do that was Yuko...but why would she be here?

"I think our perfume's gone to the wind...we could always dig it out and re-apply...or just smell like night air..." she said in an attempt to cheer up Sakura.

((Yes, PLEASE...I was waiting for a "Oh look we're here" type post....which never came...*hugs Yoshimi*))
