Rachel nodded. "You should. What are you going to call it?" Rachel bounced up and down a bit, still letting her hand rest on the dog. It was radiating such a strong feeling of life, she could feel it without actively activating her power.
Elvira smiled at the woman. "I don't have any problems with it, actually. Rachel's a sweet kid. And the no limit creditcard is a big plus too, if you know what I mean." she winked and grinned evilly. "Just too bad that a 300 channel sattelite dish doesn't have anything worthwhile on it. Ah well."
Rachel rolled her eyes as she heard Elvira talking and poked Raleigh's arm. "Is your guardian also weird?"

Raleigh thought for a time. Thinking back on his short lesson with the Aikido instructor Jin he smiled. The old man had mentioned a few things to him and there was one he liked the sound of. "Yasuo." He let his hand drop from the creatures face. "You are Yasuo." Raleigh told it firmly. The dog didn't move or make any recognition but Raleigh seemed satisfied. Turning to Rachel he grinned. "That is a Japanese name meaning peaceful."
Ruriska blinked and then laughed. "You're not kidding me. But then again that's what my new antique bookcase is for, to store my countless number of DVD's and games." She motioned towards where Charles stood. "Do you know he refused to let me get a maid? Hmph, oh well, I'm just going to go out and buy a boat. God knows what I'll do with that though."
Raleigh cast a look in Ruriska direction. "You have no idea." He replied.

"Poopy-face!" Megan yelled back, allowing Erol in an unsaid rule to get a little ahead before running after him.
She'd forgotten her fear and didn't even think twice about being led toward the other kids. Rather, she giggled, thinking of plowing through them and messing up whatever it was they were doing. It was around that area that they were running when she also noticed the critter. She stopped dead in curiousity, but then remembered where she was and spun around to chase back after Erol. Better not to look and better not to be curious. Focusing on chasing the other boy gave her an outlet to "forget" where she was.

Erol had passed up the other children long before Raleigh had conjured up the dog hiding behind a tree to await his persuer. But when he looked behind him at the adults noticing a benching being sweept out from under one of the guardians then contorted into the figure of a dog, Erol blinked. "The hell?!" If he were still being chased now would be the time to make a swift attack, his attention momentarily occupied.
He watched in both amazement and jealousy at the creature being created. Wanting to know who had generated it he looked out over the garden at each child, eventually his eyes rested on the strange haired girl and the boy he had ran past. The boy looked as if he we consentrating. Then as the dog finished molding itself it walked over towering over the boy. "No way..." Yep, Erol was jealous. He'd wanted to be able to show off his powers but Akila had striken him in doing so. He knew just as much as she that his powers took more than consentration and it wouldn't do to show off now. Sighing he turned from the kids a little solemn now and unwilling to play though he caught sight of Megan at the last minute. Turning to run he out of all things tripped over the tree's root which was jutting out of the ground. Falling face first in a little speckle of mud.
Erol's mood was quickly declining.

Megan had been right on Erol and had jumped to tag him. When he tripped though, she tripped over him, "Oh, ow, what'd you do that for, clumsy?" she demanded, then grinned, "Tag!"
When she pushed herself back up, though, she didn't run right away. She wouldn't ask, that was sissy, but she watched Erol a second, just to make sure he was ok before she went to run off again. She would turn and jump the moment she decided that he was.

Lorina's eyes widened.
"I don't think so, anymore."
The bench creature had taken her attention, and she moved slightly toward it, only to fall over Erol. Strugging to pull herself out of the mess, she sighed and stared at him.
"I'm sorry. So sorry."
As she was pulling herself out she tripped again, her eyes fixed on the dog. She pulled her knees up under her chin, and stared, watching the boy at and the girl, suddenly jealous. Her green eyes narrowed, and her arm crossed over her knees. She had forgotten about the other childern.
"I really don't know."
Airaka nodded her head, at Elaines last comment, smiling weakly. She placed a hand on the back of her head, and said,
"I don't know what I would do if her powers suddenly erupted."

Erol was caught up in the fact that he had mud on his face. Being called clumpsy didn't help much. He used his shirt to wipe the mud off glaring daggers at the equally clumpsy Megan. "I'm clumpsy?" He began. "What about you falling on people like that? Geez..." He ignored the fact that he'd been tagged crossing his arms over his chest he began to pout. "I don't wanna play anymore. You bore me." He said sitting down Indian style as he grumped.
And once more he was the object of people falling all over him as another girl did so. "What the hell!?" he shrieked glaring at Lorina now.

Anger flashed in Megan's eyes, and then when Lorina came over and tripped over him herself, Megan took the opportunity to step heavily on Erol's hand, "'Course I tripped on you! I was running, 'n' suddenly you stopped, 'n' suddenly you fell!"
Without seeing if Lorina was ok, she turned around in a huff and began to walk off. Quickly. Her feelings had been hurt by that for one reason or another, and when she had the distraction taken away, she was suddenly aware of where she was, and remembered again that she didn't WANT to be here. She would go back to the safety of AriyaLauna.
OOC: She's not run off yet. Just walking away. ^-^

Erol snorted not caring one way or another about Megan's feelings at least he didn't know if he'd hurt her or not. But still he didn't care. He eyed this new girl rather clumpsy herself.
"What do you want?" He muttered glaring at Raleigh. How did the boy do that? Erol knew everyone had to have different abilities or things would be rather boring but seeing someone in action made him particularly jealous of the whole thing. He eyed Lorina for the first time, really looking at her and could tell she was feeling the same way. He smiled wickedly. Wondering if she was into trouble he turned to address her. "Wanna go mess with the dog?"

At this stage, Malcolm felt pretty left out. Everybody had left him. Rachel was swooning over Raleigh's power, Lorina was with Erol, Megan had started to wander off. He continued to lean against the tree, his arms crossed over his chest. He couldn't help but feel jealous of everybody in one way or another.
Seeing nothing else to do, Malcolm picked himself up and headed towards the center of the garden, where Charles and the two Supers stood. They looked fairly bored; no one had come to talk to them yet. He seized the opportunity and ran up to Thomas, the fellow male Super, shoving his hand towards his. "Hi, I'm Malcolm!" Well...that was rather perky of him confused

Charles shot a very worried look into the direction of the dog created by Raleigh. This abrupt division of attention drew shocked looks from both the Supers. They exchanged a look with each other before Susan spoke up. "Charles? What's wrong?"
Charles looked at them, still worried as he motioned into the direction of the dog. "That thing. Be sure to keep an eye on it. When it endangers anyone destroy it immediatly." He was gazing hard in the direction dog.
Thomas and Susan exchanged another amazed look. This time, Thomas spoke up, "Hey Charles, what's up with the dog then?" He too looked at it, it was a pretty good bit of work. The kid had definitly talent.
Charles shook his head, never taking his eyes off of the dog. "Those are the creatures that destroyed the headquarters." He shot the two Supers a meaningful look. "And I'm sure you two have seen the state of that, hmm?"
Again, Thomas and Susan exchanged a look, but this time it was a dark, understanding one. Of course they had seen the headquarters. It had been a complete mess. In fact, they couldn't even believe that it hadn't been a Villain.
"I'll keep an eye on it," Susan offered and she walked off to the two children and the dog as she noticed on of the children running up to Thomas. She smiled, it would seem they were losing their shyness.
Thomas blinked and grinned at the boy. He gripped the boy's hand and swung it. "Hey there Malcolm! Nice to meet you. What's up?" He took the opportunity to crouch down so he could be on eye level with Malcolm.

Rachel nodded. "That's a nice name." She blinked a few times as she looked at the dog and withdrew her hand. Something had changed in the creature. The life it had now chilled her instead of warming her. "But, I'm not sure whether it fits so well."
Elvira laughed. "Oh you. A maid is so not useful, spying and stealing and all that. Nah." She shot a covert look at Charles and noted one of the Supers casually approaching and smirked. "You wanna have a robot." She grinned and winked. "No way he can object to that, eh? But I'm not bothered with it, actually. The place is not such a big mess. I make Rachel clean up her own stuff. And with the the two of us, well, there isn't that much to do." She nodded and scratched her head. "We do order an afwul lot of pizzas though. And we go out a lot. Hmmm. Now that I think of it, there isn't that much junk to begin with because we usually eat out." she grinned evilly. "Hey, if that isn't what the card was meant for, he shouldn't have given it to us."
Rachel rolled her eyes and leaned her head into one head. "Ugh, I don't know if my guardian is making your guardian go bad or the other way around."

Raleigh laughed, a happy glint in his eyes. "Well he hasn't attacked anyone yet, so I'm going to call him peaceful." Lifting his chin up a bit he watched the dog-like creature. Jeez it was huge. It would reach up to his shoulder when he was standing up. Reaching out a hand Raleigh ran it down his creations neck, ignoring or perhaps not even seeing all the talk and speculation his show had caused. "Sit down." He commanded. Five seconds passed by and then it sat, keeping its dead gaze on its master. "Isn't he great?!" Raleigh exclaimed, he hadn't felt this happy for a long time.
"Well I guess cleaning up isn't the bad and Raleigh seems to hate anything dirty and always cleans up around the place." Ruriska shrugged and grinned. "I just wanted to annoy Charles as much as possible." She shot the man a glance, but found him looking rather worried. The reason was obvious, after the destruction of his headquarters Raleigh's power would be held in suspicion for a very long time. She saw Susan moving closer to the kids and motioned towads her with a wave of her hand. "Let's move a bit closer." She said to Elvira.
"It's mine." Raleigh was still grinning, Ruri was annoying but it didn't bother him all that much. He'd gotten used to her weirdness. But then he noticed Susan and frowned. He wouldn't let them hurt his Yasuo.

Rachel smiled too, enjoying Raleigh's happyness. "Yasoa sure is big." Rachel gave a nod and changed her position to sit a bit more relaxed. She let herself fall back into the grass, enjoying the tingly warmth of the life flowing through the grass and the feeling of the sun shining through the open courtyard.
She yawned slightly and poked Raleigh in the side. "He looks awesome, Raleigh." She grinned.
Elvira moved closer just in time to hear that last part of their conversation. She frowned and looked at Ruriska, keeping her voice down. "What does he mean with that? He hasn't attacked anyone YET?" She threw a worried look at the dog and at Rachel sitting only a few inches next to it. "Should Rachel be leaving? And isn't there some law that requires dogs to be on a leash?" she chuckled weakly, still keeping her eyes on Rachel and noted the Super crouching down with the two kids.
Rachel looked up into the face of a smiling Susan and shot up. "Err... hi." Rachel muttered and averted her gaze.

Susan had approached the children and had crouched down with them. She too had heard what Raleigh had said about the attacking, but decided to ignore it for now.
"Hello," Susan smiled kindly at the two children. "That's one impressive dog you have created." She nodded at Raleigh. "Does he have a name?"
She nodded at Rachel too. "And you, drawing out the grass like that. Very impressive. You two surely must have done some training already, right?"
She carefully looked over the dog, estimating it's probably power and speed. "So what are your names? I'm Susan." She was still smiling at the two of them, hoping to ease them a bit.
