Welcome to Gaia! ::

Deanna was still getting used to the fact that what she thought she had known, wasn't what was true. It seemed that in order to protect her from Team Rocket, her memories had been altered. Now with one simple kiss, her real memories had rushed back revealing a childhood friend named Noah was her actual husband. Of course what she had been going through was nothing in comparison to the torture he had been put through. She had suggested he come work at the hotel, so that he could get adjusted to everything.

"I cannot believe they hurt him so much, Dea. Though, I suppose after what Eli and I saw when we were held captive, I shouldn't be. I know everyone is still adjusting, specially those who don't even know him. I think some of my siblings are trying very hard for your sake,"Lucy spoke, seeing her trainer in deep thought. A nod came from the woman as she leaned back against the back of her wheelchair.

Lightning was heading to check on Dea, when she saw Noah standing there, looking lost. She walked up to him and gently tapped him on the shoulder, hoping not to startle him. Being one of the ones who knew Noah, she was trying to bridge the gap between him and those who didn't know him.

"Is there something I can help you with, Noah? You look a little overwhelmed and I know Dea would not want you to be. So I can help or I can take you to where Dea is, if you want,"she spoke calmly.

Lightning was glad he relaxed after seeing that it was her, knowing this was a lot for him to take. She waved off his apologetic look, he had nothing to be sorry for, least not in her mind. When he explained he didn't remember what he was supposed to be doing, she smiled softly at that. With a soft nod of her head, she let him know that she could.

"Yeah, I will take you to Dea, she will know where she wants you to help. She wants you to be comfortable, so she will probably team you up with one of us, so you have help,"she answered.

"You are very welcome, I know this is a lot for you to get used to. As for what I do, I help Eilam and Dea run the place. Sometimes I act as security too, dealing with any safety issues that come up here. Dea's dad was actually the one to suggest her having a hotel built. She needed something to keep herself busy with all that had happened, so this seemed perfect. We just jumped at the chance to help her out in our own ways,"Lightning replied.

"Yeah, if you would like me to, I can come with you. Last I saw, she was with Lucy when I passed a short time ago. I am sure Dea would be glad to see you, she knows you are still adjusting. I know a lot of things have changed since you left, so it is a lot to get used to,"Lightning answered. She led the way to the front desk, glad that Dea and Lucy was still there.

"Hope I am not interrupting, but I found Noah in the hall, unsure of what to do,"she explained.

Lightning gave him a soft smile, before lightly prodding him in the direction of his wife. She saw a gentle smile on Lucy's smile too and how Dea reached out to take one of his hands. If they wanted, she would stick around, it wasn't like she had to do anything right that moment.

"It is alright, dear, I should have given you a guide. So I apologize for not thinking of it sooner, I really meant to. Is there something you would feel best doing?"Dea asked softly.

"No, but I should have known you might, love. And don't worry, I don't plan to make you clean or make beds. Well, we have the medical wing that Paian controls, if you want to help him. Fluff and Kachina deal with the dance studio, if that might be something you would enjoy. You could help Eilam, Light, and I run things and make sure everything is alright,"she pointed out.

"Well, he was quite determined to become one, knowing it would help me. And yes, we have a dance studio, was a request of the two of them. Alright, no dancing for you then. That is fine, I am perfectly fine with you helping us with the running of the place. Should have just suggested that in the first place,"she admitted with a soft laugh.
