"Sounds great!" Kirito said. It was good to be in a place where they didn't need to worry about anyone getting to them. He was looking forward to meeting Thalia and Deanna later and hoped he and Eve could improve on their skills.

Eve giggled lightly at her Bishie's enthusiasm but knew that it would be a good idea to get some food inside of her before meeting up with Deanna. Not oonly did she want to make sure that she was doing good as a trainer, but she also wanted to see how well Kirito would fare in a battle that wasn't life or death.

"Ready to head to Carly's?" Taylor asked Sora once his friend was done in the bathroom. Taylor was looking forward to what ever Carly might be cooking.

"Yeah," Sora exclaimed, knowing that Carly was an excellent cook.

" Hey guys! I got plenty to eat here. " Carly said when she heard her friends. She hoped Alex was awake, but knew he needed the rest after their trip.

"Thanks Carly," Eve said as they made their way back to the kitchen.

"Come on lazy bones, up, up!" an energetic voice entered Alex's ear as groggily woke up.

"Alright, Alright, jeez Rikku. I'm up. Go see if the others are up," Alex said groggily as he opened his eyes. 'wonder what time it is,' he thought to himself as he got up off the bed and ready for the day.

Carly went back to make more waffles since she knew that Alex and his Bishies liked her cooking a lot. She was glad there was more than one box of bisquick in the cupboard but hated to use up both boxes during one meal.

After Rikku woke everyone up, Alex told the others to head off for breakfast, knowing that they could smell Carly's cooking from the hallway. He would be there in a few seconds, adding a promise look when both Jean and Rikku raised an eyebrow. "I'll be there in a second. I just want to make a call," he said. After all the time and trials they went through, didn't they trust him not to fall back asleep?

Deanna was looking forward to tonight and having dinner with her friends. " Ready for a short break ?" Deanna asked both Thalia and Sakura. This morning had been really slow and Deanna hoped the rest of the day wouldn't be like this.

"and I thought eve was coming here too..." Sakura said as she pouted lightly. She had wanted to meet one of Deanna's friends before nodding to Deanna's question. She was starting to get bored if anyone asked her how she was doing.

" Eve is coming here later. She's probably eating breakfast with her friends." Deanna said standing up and stretching a bit.

"Alright," Sakura said as she stretched lightly, bored.

" Would you two like some water? I can get you some if you would like. " Deanna asked , since she was feeling really thirsty.

"please," both female bishies said.

Deanna went to the vending machine and bought three waters. She made a note to invest in water containers for the three of them, since there was a good chance they were going on an adventure soon.

"So what are our plans for the day Ark?" Jean asked curiously

Carly was cleaning the dishes and made a note to ask Thalia about the nightmares she didn't have the night before. It seemed the more she thought about it the more she was convicted it could be Morpheus. But then agian her mind could have finally forgot those terrible images.

"You okay?" Rikku asked as she brought her plate into the kitchen. While she was mostly an airhead, she could also be serious...if she wanted to be.

" I'm okay. Just been thinking about the nightmares that I haven't been having." Carly said feeling startled.

"nightmares?" Rikku asked out of curiosity. "Sorry, you don't have to tell me if you don't want to. Alex usually tells me that I'm too curious for my own good sometimes," she added.

" It's fine Rikku. My mom always said there was no such thing as being too curious. That's what my nightmares were about. They were about the day my mom went missing. " Carly said. She knew that soon she and Deanna would need to face these fears when they went to go find their mom.

"If it's any consolation...I never knew my mother. I only had my dad," Rikku replied.

" I'm sorry about you not knowing your mom. My dad was so distant after my mom went missing." Carly said feeling sad.

"Thanks Carly, but I've learned to live with it," Rikku said with a small smile. "Though I know we'll help you find your mom, if you want us to help," she added.

" I do need your guy's help. I know me and Deanna can't do this alone. " Carly said.
