"Guardian I be, and guardian my name." Said the bulky scaled warrior. "Greetings."

After wondering around and picking up whatever he thought was possible for humans to eat, Fruits, plants, funky looking rocks and some pinecones, he re-turned to where everyone set off. Trance set the large pile of collections down and pondered if it would be enough food for the people who ate.

Athena looked over at Trance, nodded, and smiled. She assumed it would be a bad idea to tell him that rocks and pine cones weren't fruit. Cooking the rabbits, she quickly separated the edible fruit from the non-edible 'fruit'.

"Well, lunch is done!" She called out.

Then she looked over to see the smoke exiting one of the holes the dragon had made. Seeing that he was still asleep, she pulled the Deer out of phase so that she could conjure it up at a moment's notice, still fresh.

Kata (Underground)

Falling from the top of a large cavern, three beings of differing sizes fell. One was a young man wearing some sort of electronic gear, another was a young girl, and the third was an octopus.

They quickly landed on top of one of the giant, tree-sized mushrooms that grew around in the caverns of Kata, where they gave off bio-luminescent light.

"Whoah." Caesar said, looking around. "Do you have any idea where we are, Vaii? Well, maybe falling into that glowing hole in reality was a bad idea."

Trance sat away from the rest, really craving some coffee at the moment. He took off his headphones returning to his blue state and closed his eyes, bringing his knees to his face and resting his head on them.

Vaida landed on the mushroom with an “oof” sound. She looked around, clinging onto her pet octopus, who turned blue in color. Pushing some of her blond and red hair out of her face, Vaida stood up.
“What are we standing on?” she dug her heel into the top of the mushroom, and jumped up and down on it.

Peeking over the edge, Caesar suddenly leapt back. "We're on the top of what looks like a giant mushroom." He said, trying to keep calm.

“Mushroom?” she hopped over to the edge, looking down and stopped jumping. “ How do we get down?”

"Well, uh, I have this shovel." He said, pulling a cut-down shovel off of his hip. "I could sharpen it, and dig our way down the stalk."

“Wont that kill it?”
She looked around, spotting another mushroom much closer to the ground on the other side of the cave. Getting an idea, she took a few steps back and then jumped on to another close by mushroom top. “We can use them like building tops.” The octopus jumped out of her arms and onto the top, crawling around and jumped from one to the next, till he made it to the one closest to the ground.

"Good idea!" Caesar said, taking a running leap from one mushroom to a slightly lower one.

She grinned, skipping from one to the next, until she reached the ground. Inky on the other hand, waited for Caesar to catch up so he could jump on his head.

On Ana:

Furnace still slept, and fully intendd to until it got dark. The light currently offending his eyes shouldn't be much trouble then-though he'd rather stay underground, his wings definitely needed some exercise.

The invisible being circled around Markus and Melu. She could probably approach him head on but that would increase the risk of him noticing the curiously flattening grass. It might be slower, but it was probablz a bit safer. The crossbow looked mean and he looked like he could use it.

On Kata:

Syllak regarded Guardian briefly, her head slghtly tilted-a habit she'd picked up from being around Tala for so long. "Greetings, Guardian, pleasure to meet you" she responded back, then patiently waited for the other two to speak. It was of course highly interesting that there was someone here with the exact same name as a particular group they were once in, but it would be impolite to relate that just at this moment in time.

Tala sank down nearly to her shoulders in the heat filled water, letting a short 'Ahhhh' escape her lips in satisfaction. Eventually she turned to look at the blue haired womans face sheepishly "Hi" she said, grinning "sorry if I splashed you. It's just so cold out there, and my clothes aren't that good at keeping water out... Speaking of which, you do know you're naked, right?"

Mimas nearly jumped when Tala had entered the little pool, having dozed off in the warm water's comforting embrace.

"Speaking of which, you do know you're naked, right?"

Mimas sighed, and nodded. "Yes, actually. I would have conjured up something to cover myself, but..."

She fell silent, closing her eyes to focus, listen for the voices of her people...

Nothing.

"I'm losing my powers. I'm as good as human now, probably."

Markus hadn't noticed the flattening grass as he began to walk towards the would be camp. What he did notice was a funny feeling when he trod on the grass and saw his boot hovering a few inches (would that be right Swix? I'll correct as required) off the flat grass. It was a sort of slightly squishy feeling, like a body. He lifted his boot and pointed his crossbow at the grass.
"Show youself. Now."
Looking at the girl he tried to send a thought to her.
"Can you hear any thoughts? Sense anything?"
Markus looked back at the grass.
"I'm gonna count now. 5..."

((TActually, I think I think I can use that))

On Ana:

There was a small sharp intake of breath when Markus stepped on the apparently invisible air, and he'd feel a small but sharp point perfectly placed to slip between his ribcage and puncture a lung.

"It seems I've misjudged your stride" spoke a cold, emotionless voice probably far higher than Markus was expecting as the invisible being 'faded' into view.

This revealed her to be a 5'7 tall, entirely blue clad woman. Her clothing was form fitting bar the blue jacket- and the invisible air Markus had been standing on was revealed to be a blue booted foot, his crossbow pointed directly at her kneecap. The womans hair too was blue, long, and plaited whilst her skin was slightly tan. But her eyes... they were diferent. Watery grey in colour, they possessed as little warmth as her voice-emotions dare not show themselves in her it seemed.

The blade currently tickling his chest was no more or less than a dagger made entirely from the precious blue stone sapphire, obviously well cared for and sharp
"I believe we are at something of an impasse" she stated coldly "you can cripple me, but one slip of my hand will go straight through your lungs. An outcome I'm sure neither of us wants. Lower your weapon, and I will lower mine"

On Kata:
Tala frowned slightly at Mimas as a thought struck her. It was very cold, but if she transformed as Syllak had suggested she wouldn't need her clothes so much, and it would enable the apparent immortal to keep what little was left of her modesty.
"Wait here for a minute" she told Mimas before jumping out and hiding behind a large snowdrift.
Shortly after a 3 foot high wolf with wet silver, brown tinted fur and yellow eyes with a hint of brown emerged from it.
Carrying Talas clothing in it's muzzle, it promptly dropped them into the hot spring
"Here" Tala spoke in her Wolf form "it's not much but it might help a bit. Sorry about the wet dog smell by the way"

Markus didn't react, or at least he didn't show it. Inside he was fuming away but he quietly listened to the woman as she held the dagger to his chest. He waited, and waited... and when the woman got to "...and I'll lower mine", He fired his crossbow, point blank, at the woman.
"You" He yelled "can f@£* the hell right off!"
Markus then proceeded to smack the woman in the face with the butt of his crossbow, or try to at least. If the shot hadn't killed her the sheer effort required to dodge a point blank crossbow bolt must surely have thrown her off guard.
