Dinah's arms stretched out in front of her like a zombie. Her goal at the moment was to feel something so that she could stop walking, but she had been doing this for some minutes. It was not going well.
She then heard voices. Someone from afar was talking a couple paces from where she was. Maybe they can help her. She walked towards the sound with her arms still in the air. Her hands then felt an odd material. It was soft, and it felt like cloth. "Are you real?" she asked as her hand clutched to the shirt.
((Back to you CK.))

((Thank you, Amaranth. Now, today's story... XD. We sound like News Reporters!))
Karyn put a reassuring hand on Dinah's shoulder. "Yes, my name's Karyn. Who are you?" She asked. This girl's obviously blind... Poor thing... How long has she been wandering around for?
Cuma stood and gestured for Arti to do the same.
Arti struggled to her feet, somehow getting all tangled up in her wings and tail. She chuckled a little out of her insane exhaustion, then somehow composed herself and stood still. I hate stupid Yrin stuff... Standing to welcome a visitor... She thought, not even noticing how stupid she was being.

((Well, it's fun isn't it? XD))
Dinah felt Karyn touch her shoulder, and chills climbed her spine like a ladder. She took a deep breath as she heard the question by Karyn. "My name is Dinah," she answered.

Deon glanced around, confused. He had been looking for a stream to fill up the water bottles in but had gotten lost on the way back, having a fairly poor sense of direction. He let out a loud yelp when he stumbled over a tree root and into a bramble bush, freezing as soon as he felt the thorns biting his skin. He let out an annoyed sound, trying to wiggle free, but to no avail.
((Now I guess someone could find him, since I have no idea where everyone else is in relation to him ^^))

Once 13's plate was clean, he dragged himself lazily over to the nearest closet and pulled out a hat. Gingerly placing it over his pointed ears, he began to search for a pair of shades to disguise his demon-like eyes. He stopped looking when a set of black sunglasses hung infront of his face. "Thanks." he snatched them from Zane's hands.
"I know, I hate that you have to hide too..." Zane said, as if he had read 13's thoughts, "but we can't afford another move, and not just financially."
"Stop being so cheesy, I'm fine," 13 grinned while he placed on the shades. He walked to the door. "And not only am I fine, I'm going to beat you to the market too," he waved the shopping list at Zane's face before zipping out of the door.
Zane sighed, rolling his eyes with a smile, then locked the door and chased after his brother. "I guess you'll be paying then?" he called.

Reikyo ambled his way down a small dirt road, hands behind his head as he "searched" for Deon, since the brat had gotten lost again.

Qeb walked on, idly noting the life around him, coldly calculating how long it would take to end each life he past as a way to pass the time. He sighed again and changed course, moving towards the flickering sign of life in water so he could will his skins before they emptied too much.
Reaching the water, he filled the skins and with a final bite, placed the half of the trail bar not consumed back into the waxpaper pouch. He arranged everything back to the way it was, and hung the skins on their hooks. As he was turning away to continue on his way he noticed a life trapped in a bush not too far away. He read the life the bush put out and sighed, moving towards that area to free whoever it was.
Reaching into the bush, Qeb reached down and grabbed the back of the man's shirt pulling him up and out of the brambles. He didn't notice the subtle way the bush moved to allow the man out, leaving him with only the tears he had received falling in. Qeb blinked for a few moments looking at the man, seeing the traces of another's life swirling around him and the sign of 'power' it carried. He shook his head to clear the vision, and spoke simply, "Don't fall in bushes that hurt. Learn to mark your trail, and the guy you came with is back in that direction. He's leaving you behind."

Deon let out a small 'eep!' when he was yanked from the bush. He blinked in confusion before he processed the words. "Oh, okay, uh, thanks bye!" he stuttered. He bowed to the other man a little awkwardly and darted off in the direction he had been pointed in. He veered off course without knowing it and stumbled into a clearing with a small house in it. He grimaced when he realized he'd gotten lost again.

Qeb sighed as he watched the man go off course once more, and followed slowly after him as it was the shorter of the two routes. The man clearly had no sense of direction whatsoever and needed all the help he could get. He pulled one of his staves out and twirled it through his fingers, spinning and twisting it idly in odd, mesmerizing ways.
He stopped several paces behind the man, continuing the motions and looking around. Noticing a good sized rock on the ground, he picked it up in his off hand and chucked it at the house watching it head squarely for the front door. He didn't care if no one was here, if they weren't then they wouldn't care after all and if they were, then he would find out soon.

13 crossed his arms when he realized that Zane was right about the money issue. He turned and walked over to him, handing him the list. "Shut up.." he muttered in response to Zane's large smile.
"Didn't say anything," Zane kept smiling. He realized something, and turned around to head back to the house.
"Where are you going?" 13 asked, following behind him.
"I forgot to bring the money." Zane responded. He walked back toward the house, only to stop short when he noticed a rock knock against the wood. "13, don't move...I think we've been found out!" he whispered, though loud enough for 13 to hear.

Deon startled when a rock flew past him, spinning around and jumping with a nervous expression when he saw the same man from before. He gave a nervous half smile, waved and turned to make a quick dash down the trail/road thing in front of the house, step faltering when he saw two more boys. Dangit! He just wanted to find his mentor so they could get going! They had a mission to complete!

"You're an idiot. If you had gone straight you found have found the other man." Qeb spoke without showing emotion, though he sighed despondently at the stupidity of the man before him.
He stood up a bit straighter as he noticed the two lives in his peripheral and turned his head to look at them more clearly. They had an odd look to them, but seemed at home enough in the clearing for him to figure that they were the ones the house belonged to. He blinked once and then walked forward towards them, spinning his staff in a simple, constant circle.
"Are you two able to walk in a straight line? That man can't manage it. Mind getting him to where he needs to be?" Qeb asked simply, excessively straight forward in his manner, as he pointed over his shoulder at the purple-haired individual.

"That depends, where does he need to be...?" 13 asked suspiciously, thinking that it was a pretty random set of questions. He got a strange vibe from both of the people.
"I suppose we could. We've lived here long enough to know where everything is," Zane explained casually."Are you crazy? You're going to trust them right away without even knowing if they were sent by the psyco who runs with country or not?" 13 asked.
"I have a strong feeling that they're not. Otherwise they'd have attacked you by now," Zane explained, though quietly just in case the new visitors were indeed soldiers of the warlord.

He stopped spinning the half staff and pointed back over his shoulder with it, a little off from the purple-haired man. "If you go straight in that direction, there should be a trail or something. The other man is on it. Lead purple to the other man." He twisted so his upper body was mostly facing the purple man, and shouted out to him, "You! Go with these two. They'll take you to the man you're with, so you won't wander into brambles again."
He idly adjusted the straps on his pack then and without a care, began to idly walk a little off form the way he had pointed, having adjusted his path to coincide with a berry bush near to the 'path devoid of life' as most trails were to him.

"Oh! Uh... you don't have to! I'm fine on my own!" Deon said, waving his hands in front of himself rather frantically.
Reikyo sighed and decided to just head back to the campsite. Deon always found his way back...within a few days.
