Welcome to Gaia! ::

The park, perfect hangout for all ages. Besides the playgrounds that are contained within school grounds penguin park is the best in the city. The park itself is named for the king penguin slide setteled near the entrance. There are a few other peicies of equipment but it is the slide that makes the park well known. People tend to avoid the park after night fall due to the park's unreliable lighting system.

Makato contined to wander until he stumbled to the park. It was empty except for one girl sitting on a bench. He didn't bother looking at her, he was too busy wallowing in selfpity. Makato climbed up the Penguin Slide and glanced out into the sky. If I'm useless...then why am I here? He asked himself. He heard the trees wail. They weren't that girl's spirits though, these were the trees themselves. Makato didn't want to converse with the elementals anymore...they tricked him. He hugged his knees and listened to the sighing wind.

(( I'm not here anymore, I left for the residential area. ))

Akira ended up in the park and landed on the top of King Penguin. "I guess that's all I can do for tonight," he said taking off his mask, "I can't help with a problem unless Kinomoto-sama calls me or if it has something to do with the Cards." He took out what looked like a crystal ball. In it, he could see the figures of Sakura and the others fighting against the other Makato, "Good luck Kinomoto-sama."

Akira felt a strange aura coming near, so he quickly slipped back on his mask. He turned in the direction where the aura was coming and saw a large figure running under the slide. The aura he felt was much like that of the girl's at the shrine. He pulled out a scroll, just in case he had to do battle at all with whatever was under there. He jumped down and saw a large black, lion-like figure. "Keroberos?" he muttered. No, this was not Keroberos. Keroberos was colored much differently and this creature had butterfly wings, "Who are you?" he asked the creature.

Suppi blinked. That was... weird. First Nakuru turns out to be an illusion, the next thing you know a kid in a mask shows up and the world decides to reset itself. Something was going on here, and it was being controlled by someone powerful enough to fool a guardian. He growled. This situation was quickly going from bad to worse. It would be best to find Eriol as soon as possible. He transformed back into his smaller form (to avoid being seen again) and flew to Eriol's new apartment, hoping the boy had returned home.

((Sorry about the long absence. ._.))

Sakura sighed with relief upon hearing that her sister was ok.
"I'm glad that you're alright. But I don't understan why you ran away in the first place." Sakura said quietly, "I think that we're able to trust Akira." Sakura shifted her weight a bit while looking curiously at April.

Sakura skated towards the bench and sat down beside her sister.
"I think that we should listen to his input." Sakura said. "He seems to know what he's talking about. And I don't think that it's odd for him to have cards. I mean after all, look at me!" She laughed quietly to herself.
"Though he does a much better job of looking after his cards than I do." Sakura said reaching up and holding the key around her neck.
