Celestine scoffed when she said that Kanone had said that he was just a warm up. "You could have thought that he has a really big mouth and nothing to back it up. The day he beats me will be the day that I might start to lose the urge to laugh every time I see that bracelet on his arm." He said simply.

Hikari smiled slightly to Aamori and shook her head, "No, I don't think so. They're just a little sweet, but otherwise tasteless." she said simply. She glanced back to Celestine and raised and eyebrow slightly. "Bracelet?" she asked curiously.

"The silver band on his wrist. It's a warrior bracelet. This village is in trouble if that's the best they can come up with. He just got flattened by a girl."

Hikari just sighed, "Males." she muttered, shaking her head as she rolled her eyes and put the rest of the dried flowers away. Why was it all men seemed convinced that they should be superior in fighting skill to females?

Aamori shook her head after listening to Celestine. "...You have no right to laugh at him or criticize him for wearing that bracelet." She paused. "At least he's willing to try and protect the village if he has to... Unlike someone who just runs away." She muttered. She glanced back to Hikari for a moment, giving a nod when she said that the flower was tasteless. She gave a sigh and slipped the flower into her mouth before looking back to Celestine. She just shook her head. She was always underestimated just because she was a girl. One day that would come back to bite every single person who underestimated her.

Celestine didn't even bother to look back to Aamori at first, he just reached into his bag and dug around for a moment before he pulled out a bracelet just like the one that Kanone wore, only it wasn't quite his size, the thing would probably fall off if he tried to wear it. "I'm still around." he said simply before he tucked it away again. "...I guess Kanone didn't bother to tell you what went on the night before I left." He said simply, "But then again that doesn't surprise me either." he said simply. "I didn't just op and decide to leave." he said simply. "I left because he told me to for the same reason that you never want to sleep in the same vicinity with me." he thought to her. "He got tired of dealing with me."

Hikari just looked between Aamori and Celestine. She was half expecting Celestine to blow up on her, though she was pleasantly surprised when he kept his cool, though she had little to no idea of what he was talking about. This was one time, she was pretty sure that she didn't even want to ask. She could gather enough without asking to know that the bracelet he pulled out wasn't always his, it looked like it was meant doe someone quite a bit bigger than he was.

Aamori gave a heavy sigh after seeing the bracelet that he pulled out. "Just because you have one of those doesn't mean you'd do anything to help them should anything happen." She averted her eyes and crossed her arms over her chest. "And you're right, Kanone didn't share anything more with me then what the bracelets stood for and I didn't care to ask after that. I had enough on my mind at the time then to go inquiring about why you left." She muttered. "...What do you care where I sleep anyway?" She asked slightly annoyed, though only now having it dawn on her that he didn't say that out loud. She gave a heavy sigh. Leave it to him to go and do that, even right after saying something leading into what he thought to her.

Kyran was just trying to ignore the exchanges though his curiosity was peaked when they started bringing up those bracelets. He looked over at Celestine and was listening to what he was saying only to end up waiting for him to continue with an explanation as to why he left. He quirked a brow and looked over at Aamori for a moment after what she asked. He didn't remember anything being said that would prompt that. Then he started to remember something that Marius had said about abilities that Celestine had. He wasn't completely sure but he thought that might explain Aamori's seemingly random question. He glanced down to Hikari for a moment, wondering if she'd thought the same thing he had.

Celestine finally did look back to Aamori and glowered at her, "And where do you get off saying what I would and wouldn't do?" he asked darkly. "They haven't needed me in the last four years, and if they did it wasn't like I was that far away or hard to find even if anyone even took the time to go looking. No one bothered to go looking for me, so I never even bothered to come back, but that doesn't mean that I would just stand by and watch this place get wrecked again." he resumed thinking to her. He turned back around and huffed, "I don't give a damn where you sleep." he said sharply, "You're the one that gets all upset when you wake up." He said simply.

Hikari just looked at Celestine and then over to Aamori. She could tell that Celestine was telling her more than what he was saying; she could see the conversation in Celestine's expression. She glanced back to Kyran for a moment and sighed softly, nodded slightly. "...Celestine...would you care to share your story with the rest of us since you started out loud?" she asked softly.

Celestine looked back to Hikari and blinked, looking a bit surprised, though the surprised only faded into mild irritation when he realized that she knew. "You ask too many questions." he grumbled and then looked away. "I left here because Kanone told me to leave. I was getting half smothered anyway, but at the same time, he didn't want me here anymore. Just like i can send thoughts, I an also send images, and when I am asleep I have absolutely no control over it. So when I would dream, Kanone was seeing them too, just like Aamori does. So he told me to get lost because the further I am away the less likely anyone else is going to see what I see." He said darkly and then looked back at her, "Does that answer any more questions that you could ever possibly ask on the subject?"

Hikari blinked and then lowered her eyes slightly. "...I'm sorry." she said softly.

Celestine just turned back around and continued walking. "...It's not like it matters now anyway."

Aamori stared at Celestine when he looked back at her and then stuck her tongue out at him. "I only say that because you won't even go back on a good day just to let the people who care about you know you're still alive." She gave a sigh when she realized the following thing he was saying was actually being thought. That could be extremely annoying when she could have something to say right back. She just kept quiet and didn't bother saying anything. She glared at him when he mentioned that she always woke up, upset. "I wouldn't wake up like that if someone knew how to control is own damn ability!" She muttered bitterly.

Kyran gave a sigh when he noticed Hikari nod and then listened to the question that followed. He for once, would never have bothered asking that. Especially considering the back and forth between him and Aamori. He looked over at Celestine when he started answering the question and then shrugged. "Half of that we already knew." He commented. "Though it is nice of you to share, after the fact."

Aamori for the most part ignored everything else that was being said. She'd started quietly choking for a moment and then glanced back over at Hikari once she got her breath back. "...I think I swallowed that flower..." She said quietly before giving a sigh.

Celestine just balled his fists up at his sides and continued walking in silence, clearly even more agitated now. "I'm sorry that I can't control it, Aamori... I've tried... And there isn't a single other person in this entire godforsaken village that can show me how!" He snapped at her without turning around. It was the truth, at current, he was the only one born here with that particular ability. Marius could teach him how to make his dream visions more clear, but he couldn't teach him how to keep them to himself.

Hikari's ears drooped slightly when she heard Celestine's comment. She could really see where that must be frustrating for Aamori to have to see what he sees, but it sounded like there wasn't much tat Celestine could do about it other than sleep a few miles away from them. She glanced over to Aamori again when she said that she swallowed the flower and shook her head slightly before slipping her hand into her back to get out the rest of them. She slipped another couple of flowers from the smaller bag and held them out to Aamori again.

Aamori listened to what Celestine said when he snapped at her and shook her head before taking the flowers that Hikari handed to her. She was quiet for a moment while she slipped one of the flowers into her mouth again. She gave a heavy sigh. "Just because there isn't anyone to show you how to control the ability doesn't mean you can't work on that yourself." She said oddly enough in a somewhat calm tone. "I mean.. How do you think the first people to ever learn an ability learned how to control it? There isn't always going to be someone to hold your hand throughout everything..." She gave another sigh and then turned and looked at Hikari for a moment. "..I'm going to head to the back, keep myself from talking to everyone. I don't want to swallow the flower again.." She said quietly before turning around and wandering back towards where Nero was. At least walking near him she knew there wouldn't be very much conversation.

Celestine just gritted his teeth, but didn't bother to say another word. What the hell would she know anyway? She had trainers telling her how to breathe, she didn't have to worry about learning things all by herself. She wanted to talk about people learning to control new abilities, most of those people were probably halfway over the hill before they learned to fully control things like this. This wasn't an ability that he wanted to learn, he was just born with it and stuck dealing with it by himself. He'd been trying for years to control it, and it just didn't work when he was sleeping. He could control it when he was awake for the most part, unless he wasn't paying attention, but at night when he was sleeping, he just couldn't stay focused, it wasn't like he wasn't trying. But then telling her that would be pointless, it wasn't her problem and she probably didn't really care either way as long as it didn't effect her.

At least once the conversation stopped the trip seemed to speed up, at least for him. He got them out of the town and well into the forest of the next mountain. He thought about going around it, but honestly it would be faster to jut go straight up and over. The path that he led them on was fairly steep, and it seemed like practically no one ever came this way. There was no definite foot path, but Celestine at least seemed to know where he was going to avoid any rock walls like in the other mountain, he took them around that. Luckily, this mountain wasn't all that tall so it wasn't too horrible to climb. Well at least Celestine had no trouble with it. He was talking it slower than he wanted to for everyone else's sake, but even at that he managed to get them herded over to the other side of the mountain before nightfall. He finally deiced it was probably best to give everyone a break.
"There is another village further up...but I don't know anyone there, so I doubt we'd have anywhere to stay. I don't feel like messing with them anyway." he said simply, "...The forest that we're looking for in beyond his village and about half a day's walk away... we should be getting there by tomorrow evening." he said simply before he went to go sit at the base of another tree.

Hikari was half ready to fall over before they finally came to a stop again. She had refrained of badgering anyone with anymore questions for the remainder of the day. At least coming back down the mountain was a lot easier than coming up. Even still after Celestine gave them the okay to sit down, she flopped down right where she stood. She'd been sliding all over the place int he leaves for most of the day with the slick bottoms of her boots. She'd been half ready to take them off and just go barefoot.

Nanashi had just kept quietly to himself, other than staying near LaRae. He was half glad that this spetum was so long. If nothing else it mad a good walking stick. He was starting with wish that he had somewhere to stash it, though. He didn't like carrying it all of the time. He was pretty tired by the end of the day as well after climbing up the mountain. Once Celestine said that they could rest he just went to find a nice tree to sit under and sank down beneath it, leaving his spetum leaned against the side.

Kyran was relieved when Celestine finally said that they were stopping. He didn't really have any trouble with the walking but it certainly could start to get to a person when you had to trek up a mountain. At times like this he was glad that Radha was so flat. He looked down at Hikari when she flopped down on the ground and then sat down next to her. He sat there for a few moments before he started to remove his boots. He slipped them off and set them next to him before he pulled his foot into his lap and started to rub it a little. They were just sore, but he liked to get his boots off and rub his feet a bit after walking so much; Just to take good care of them.

LaRae was pretty worn out by the time that they were all stopping. She wasn't used to climbing mountains, but it wasn't all that hard on her. She watched as Nanashi wandered off to sit below a tree and followed after him moments later. She sat down on the ground near him and set her arms out behind her to hold herself up while she stretched out her legs a bit.

Nero was quiet the whole day, though quite uncomfortable sharing the rear with Aamori for most of the day. Thankfully she didn't speak at all really. He had no trouble with the mountainous climb and probably could've gone longer had they not decided to stop. He gave a sigh seeing as everyone was starting to sit down and get comfortable. He had his arms crossed over his chest and he glanced down at Aamori who had come to a stop next to him. "...You're not staying close to me anymore." He said quietly before turning and walking away from her to be by himself. He wound up off away from the others just a ways, sitting beneath a tree.

Aamori spent the remainder of the walk practically glued to Nero. Well, as close to him as she could get before he glared at her to get her to move away. She didn't say anything else for the most part and kept focused on not swallowing the flowers that Hikari had given her. She was pretty sure the only reason she'd swallowed the first one was from talking too much. She of course had a bit of trouble with the mountain climb and even ended up taking her sandals off for part of the climb just to try and keep herself from tripping. When they finally stopped she glanced up at Nero when he spoke to her and then sighed heavily when he wandered off. Apparently just standing too close to the guy could bother him. She glanced around at the others for a moment before turning around and back tracking a little just to put a small gap of distance between them. She came to stop and then sat down where she was standing. She brought her knees up and wrapped her arms around them pulling them close to her chest while she rested her head down on her knees.

Hikari finally got around to unzipping her boots and slipping them off and then sighed as she wiggled her toes. "Boy..." she muttered before she glanced over to Kyran. She smiled slightly and leaned her head against his arm. "You want to rub my feet while you're at it?" she asked playfully, obviously not even trying to be serious about it.

Nanashi looked over to LaRae and smiled weakly when she sat down beside him and ten sighed before kicking off the boots that Kyran had given him. He flexed his toes a little and then sighed softly as he leaned back against the tree again and then leaned his head over against LaRae's shoulder lightly. "...So...are you beat yet?" he asked with a slight smile.

Celestine just closed his eyes as he leaned back against the tree and sighed softly. He did open his eyes once to check and see where Aamori was, but he didn't bother even offering to go anywhere near her. He just turned his eyes up to the leaves and then looked back to see if he could find Nobu anywhere, though he took to looking near Kyran fist since that was where he'd been most of the time.

Kyran continued to rub his foot for a few moments before switching to the other. He glanced over at Hikari when she leaned her head against his arm and gave a slight smile. He released his own foot and then gave a soft sigh. "Well let me have them." He said lightly as he looked down at her feet. Even if she wasn't being serious about it he didn't mind.

LaRae gave a soft smile when Nanashi leaned his head on her shoulder. "Yeah, I'm pretty worn out." She said quietly. "I think climbing up the mountain is the culprit.." She said shaking her head lightly. She wasn't really even sure why they had to walk up and over the mountain. They could easily have flown and probably made slightly better time. Well that didn't really matter now it was already done and over with.

Nobu was laying on the ground just behind Kyran. He was even quite tired from the trek. He did however look up about the time that Celestine was looking for him. He started to climb to his feet and stretch a little, his should blades making a loud popping noise before he stood up straight again. He glanced around briefly to see where everyone was. He'd seen everyone but Aamori and Nero. He then started to walk over to Celestine with the intention of laying down beside him but stopped. The fact that Aamori wasn't in the immediate area bothered him, as it would have bothered him if any of the girls weren't right around when they stopped for the night. He turned around and started back the way that they'd come; It wasn't all that hard to find her. She hadn't really back tracked that far and he could easily pick up on her distinct scent. He wandered right over to her and then laid down on the ground beside her.

Aamori continued to sit there quietly with her head rested against her knees. Her ears twitched slightly when she heard someone walking behind her. She sat up and turned to look and then relaxed when she saw Nobu. "..Oh.. ..It's you.." She said quietly with a sigh. She smiled a little and then set her hand down on top of the canine's head when he laid down beside her. She rested her head down against her knees again and looked down at Nobu, continuing to rub the top of his head gently.

Hikari raised her head off of his shoulder for a moment and shook her head slightly. "I was just playing, Kyran." she said with a smile. "I don't want you touching my feet, I'm ticklish." she said with a soft laugh. She leaned back against his arm again and snuggled against him lightly.

Nanashi laughed softly, "Yes, I suppose, so." he said softly. He sighed and closed his eyes for a moment. "...I'm already tired." He said quietly. He seemed to stay tired anymore. He guessed he was catching up on all of that sleep that he lost before he started traveling with the group. At least now he felt safe sleeping in and didn't have to worry so much about someone stumbling across him somewhere and doing something to him in his sleep. It had happened.

Celestine watched as Nobu started toward him and then blinked when he started off in the direction that they'd just come from. He sighed softly when he realized that he must be going after Aamori. For once he had little care to be anywhere near that girl. He just closed his eyes again and leaned back against the tree again. He didn't care if Nobu stayed back there all night, he wasn't going to to crawling back to him so he could help him sleep. He'd either deal with whatever he saw or just stay up all night, it didn't really matter to him at all.

Kyran looked to Hikari when she lifted her head off his shoulder and then gave a soft smile. "Even so, I can still rub them for you. So if you are ever serious, I really don't mind." He said with a nod. He was about to go ahead and lay back but stopped and shifted slightly so that he could maneuver his blades from the holster without nicking himself. Once he had them removed he set them down on his other side, opposite of Hikari and then laid back slipping his arms behind his head.

LaRae continued to sit there for a moment. "...If you're tired, you should go to sleep." She said quietly. She wasn't too tired, mostly just worn out and her feet ached. Though if she laid down and got comfortable she was pretty sure she'd fall asleep in no time.

Nobu lifted his head slightly when he felt Aamori touch his head. He looked up at her for a moment before setting his head back down and getting comfortable. He even wrapped himself around her slightly, his tails going around her backside, to the other side of her and then resting beside her.

Aamori glanced back down to Nobu when he started moving a little and then lifted her hand from on top of his head. She gave a soft smile seeing that he'd made himself comfortable. She sat for a little longer before she finally shifted and rested her head against Nobu, snuggling into his fur. She was glad that someone came back to sit with her though Nobu wasn't exactly who she'd been hoping for. She gave a soft sigh and then shut her eyes gently.

Hikari smiled again and shook her head slightly. "I wouldn't make you do that so long as I have arms." she said gently as she watched him lay back. She smiled and lay down beside him, resting on her side with her head resting on one of her arms. She smiled to Kyran again and scooted a little closer to him, leaning her forehead against his elbow.

Nanashi smiled weakly and sighed softly. "...Yeah...guess so." he said quietly. He raised his head off of her shoulder and leaned back against the tree again losing his eyes. He sat there for a moment and then glanced over to LaRae and held out one arm behind her as he tilted his head slightly as if asking she wanted to lean against him.

Kyran turned his head slightly to look over at her once she had laid down. He smiled softly when she scooted closer to him and then slipped his hand out from under his head so he could place it around her and pull her even closer.

LaRae glanced over to him when he leaned back against the tree. She smiled softly when she saw him hold out his arm. She continued to sit there for a moment before she moved closer to him so that she could lean against him.

Hikari smiled when he pulled her closer to him and raised her head to rest it on top of his arm and then closed her eyes as she draped her arm over him. Apparently she was going to wrap herself around him this time before she even went to sleep. She opened her eyes again for a moment to look at him and smiled before leaning over to press her lips lightly against his cheek. "Goodnight." she whispered softly before she snuggled back against his arm and closed her eyes again.

Nanashi smiled slightly and draped his arm around her after she leaned against him and then closed his eyes as he leaned his head over against hers. "...Good night." he said quietly.

Celestine cracked his eyes open for a moment and shook his head when he saw everyone that was in the area coupling up and getting all cuddly. He rolled his eyes slightly. Well, he guessed Aamori could go cuddle on Nero for the night. He wasn't going to go chasing her. He knew she usually liked to spend time with him, but he guessed anymore at night when he wanted to sleep was the last time that she'd want to be near him. He just sighed softly and closed his eyes again. Well there wasn't much point of staying on the ground since Nobu had wandered off. He shook his head and got up, looking up to the lower branch of the tree that he was sitting under and hauled himself up before he rested back against the tree again and finally closed his eyes once more to try to get to sleep.

Kyran smiled softly when she kissed his cheek and gave her a light squeeze before he shut his eyes to try and sleep. It didn't take him all that long to fall asleep, more or less just because he was a little worn out from the trek. He slept pretty well throughout the night and barely moved an inch even when the sun started to rise. He started to crack his eyes open not too much later and then tried to stifle a yawn with his free hand. It felt like morning had come way too quickly, for him at least.

LaRae nuzzled against him lightly and shut her eyes. It didn't take long at all for her to fall asleep, though she hadn't realized just how tired she was until she rested against him. Once morning rolled around she was still asleep leaning against him, and quite comfortable.

Nero was where he stopped last night though he was already awake when the sun started to come up. He was still sitting with his back against the tree. It wouldn't look like it, but he hadn't been there the whole night. When he first woke up he got up and wandered off for a little while before coming back.

Nobu stayed by Aamori throughout the night and didn't budge while she was asleep on him. He was awake however, just waiting for her to get up or roll off of him so that he could get up and stretch.

Aamori fell asleep not long after she laid down on Nobu and slept pretty well through the night. She was still asleep when morning came. She was on her side cuddled against Nobu comfortably with a hand loosely clutching his fur.

Hikari slept peacefully through the night where she was, though as usual in these situations, she had managed to curl herself up around Kyran's midsection and had her face burrowed into his side. She still hadn't really started to stir when the sun rose, but when Kyran started to move a little she shifted positions slightly and curled up on him a little more as if she was trying to hold him still.

Nanashi slept peacefully through the night as well once LaRae was settled against him. He awoke early in the morning when the sun peeped through the trees and into his face, but he just turned his head into LaRae's hair and stayed still, letting her sleep for a while longer.

Celestine had barely slept at all through the night. He had fallen asleep once and had yet another of those disturbing dreams, this one slightly different from the last, but not by much. He had just spent the rest of the night sitting up in the tree, staring up at the moons through the leaves. Once morning came he started to look around at the others, impatient to get moving again.

Kyran gave a soft smile when he realized that Hikari was attached to him, rather then just resting on him. He half suspected that this was going to happen, after all she'd clung to parts of him before while she slept. He gave a soft sigh and took his free hand and set it down on her arm that was across his midsection and shook her lightly in an attempt to wake her.

LaRae tried to keep herself asleep for as long as she possibly could but when the sun hit her face and stayed there she couldn't help but start to wake up. She cracked her eyes open and lifted a hand to rub her eyes gently. For once Nanashi wasn't going to have to struggle trying to wake her.

Nobu shifted only a little in hopes of causing Aamori to wake. He shook his head lightly when he noticed that she'd grabbed onto a portion of his fur and didn't appear to be letting go.

Aamori was still asleep though she now had her head buried into Nobu's fur to hide her face from the sun. She stirred slightly when she felt Nobu shift but only held on a little tighter to him and continued to sleep.

Hiakri groaned softly and tried to burrow her face further into Kyran's side. "Mmm...Five more minutes..." she muttered incoherently. She didn't want to wake up yet, but unfortunately, she couldn't get back to sleep after that. She sighed and raised her head slightly to look at Kyran with a slightly grumpy expression. on her face before she yawned.

Nanashi smiled at LaRae when she finally started to move and lifted his head off of hers. "Good morning." he said lightly. "Did you sleep well?" he asked quietly.

Celestine sighed softly and finally hopped out of the tree since everyone in the immediate area was waking up. He didn't figure he needed to worry about Nero, he was almost always up at the crack of dawn. He finally just started to walk back the way they'd come last night to see if he could find Aamori. He rolled his eyes when he saw her still sleeping and clinging to Nobu's fur. "Got yourself into a bing, huh?" he said simply as he looked at Nobu. He walked over to Aamori and pushed on her shoulder with his foot. "Get up."

Kyran chuckled softly hearing her babble. He watched when she lifted her head and just smiled even after seeing her expression. "Well good morning to you too.." He said lightly while he waited for her to wake up the rest of the way and let him go. He wouldn't have minded staying asleep with her a little longer but he knew they needed to be up and moving or be stuck dealing with an overly grumpy Celestine.

LaRae lowered her hand and set it down in her lap before looking over to Nanashi. She smiled. "Yes, I did." She paused. "What about you, how did you sleep?"

Nobu turned his head slightly when he heard someone else coming closer. He lowered his head a little when he heard what Celestine said. 'She's not the only one who likes to cling to me during their sleep..'

Aamori only buried her face into Nobu's fur again when her shoulder was pushed. She didn't want to wake up but was starting to because of that. After a few moments she finally released Nobu's fur from her hand and then started to sit up and rub the sleep from her eyes. She didn't bother looking to see who touched her, she could tell just from the few short words telling her to 'Get up' along with the voice. She just sat there quietly while she woke herself up the rest of the way.

Nobu stood up the second that Aamori released him and sat up. He moved a couple feet away from her and then stretched. He'd been stuck in the one position so long that he was a little stiff and the popping and cracking from his bones was proof enough of that.

Hikari yawned slightly and finally sat up again. "...Yeah...good morning." She said quietly. She rubbed her eyes and flattened her hair back down over her forehead and then stretched slightly. She shook her head and groaned as she stood up and dusted herself off before she looked down to Kyran and smiled at him. "Aww, guess I should be nice." She said as she knelt back down again and leaned down to kiss him on the nose lightly. She smiled at him again and then sat back on her knees again.

Nanashi smiled and nodded to her. "I'm glad... I slept fine." He told her when she asked. He finally sat up and reached down to his boots to put them back on again

Celestine just half smiled at Nobu and shrugged slightly. "At least I didn't pull your fur." he thought simply. He looked back to Aamori again and sighed softly. "What are you doing all the way out here anyway?" he said simply. "Are you going to get to be as bad as Nero on us?" said simply. He just barely even waited for her to give him an answer as to why she was out here before he started to turn back the other way, "Hurry up." he said simply as he started off again.

Kyran sat up once Hikari had and then stretched a bit. He smiled when she kissed his nose and then looked over at her. "Yes, you should be nice. Being grumpy just doesn't suit you." He said with small laugh. He continued to sit there for a moment before standing up and dusting himself off. Then he started to adjust his vest a little while he glanced back down at Hikari. "Ya' know.. It's probably a good thing that I don't move around in my sleep like you do." He paused. "If I did, I'm su-- ..." He shook his head. "Never mind."

LaRae started to get to her feet and then stretched her arms up over her head before glancing back down at him as she dropped her arms back down to her sides. "That's good." She smiled a little. "Usually when I sleep against you like that, you don't sleep very well." She commented quietly.

Nobu stood there for a moment, at least until Celestine started to walk away. He followed after him almost immediately, catching up easily so that he could walk beside him.

Aamori started to glance back over her shoulder at him when he questioned her being out here. But stopped when he followed with the Nero comment. She gave a heavy sigh and shook her head while she started to get to her feet. She adjusted her skort and then turned around to follow after him, though she kept a slight distance. She didn't bother to answer the question he asked before, mostly because she didn't think he cared since he turned and walked off before she could answer it.

Nero wasn't all that far off from where Aamori had been so he caught sight when they passed by and then stepped out from behind the tree to follow after them. He assumed they'd be staring out again soon.

Hikari remained on the ground after Kyran stood up and just reached over to start to pull her boots back on. She looked up to him when he started to speak and opened her mouth with a slight grin like she couldn't believe he'd even started to say that. "You!" She laughed as she smacked him in the leg and shook her head. "Honestly, Kyran." she said as she resumed pulling on her boots. She zipped them up and then stood, up, placing her hands on her hips as she looked up to him. "You might wake up with my foot in your face tomorrow morning." she said as she stuck her tongue out at him playfully.

Nanashi laughed softly and shook his head. "That's usually because you're talking to me through half of the night." he said with a soft laugh. He stood up and dusted himself off a little before he looked back over to her again. "You were peaceful last night."

Celestine glanced down to Nobu when he came up beside him and smiled slightly before reaching down to scratch behind his ear as he walked. He yawned slightly and shook his head before he stepped back into the area with the others and glanced around. How in the world were they so lively this early in the morning?
