Rylerion
Rylerion stood off to the side, grumbling pointedly. He didn't like being in the spot light, and despite having tried to get out of this task, his young ward had insisted he stay. He kept to himself, his arms folded over his chest as he looked out at the elders through his shining mask. 'Dark and dank...sounds like my kind of place. At least I'm not with the one that has to swim," he mused to himself as he glanced to his companions, pursing his unseen lips. "Alright, I'd rather us get this done as quickly as possible. Anyone know where this cave is?"

Xander sat at his gaurdian's feet, holding his tail in his right hand as he was akin to do when he didn't know what else to do. After all, it had been his idea to step foward when asked, but now he was starting to have second thoughts. Caves could be scary, and things lived in caves that weren't always nice. He put his free arm around Ry's leg, looking up at the taller humans in silence.

TrinityCowgirl
Crap. Crap crap crap. All Sawk had wanted was a nice, relaxing visit to the islands, to visit and play with the children, sample the food, maybe get a little sun, and more food. She'd found a friendly group, and was enjoying herself. Then that crazy winged chick came. Alex, one she'd heard of before, had decided she could pull this off. Sawk groaned a bit, stepping forward to where Alex was, and folded her arms. Beak clicking, she shook her head.
"You know, I wasn't much in the mood to find the Holy Grail today, King Arthur, but whatever. I suppose you can count me in. I'm Sawk, at your service." She said, distainfully extending a hand to him. " 'Guess it's nice to 'meetcha, but the circumstances could be better." Pausing a bit, she looked back to the woman, blinking.
"Uhm.. excuse me..." she said a bit, raising her other hand, "do we need to know how to pronounce that name? I may be out, if so. Never been good with names."

Yakobi
Yakobi turned to the tree that were on the same team as her. They had to work togeather to do what now?! Why did she ever sign up to do this? Got to the Cave of Keeltakrill and get a flask of holy water...This would not be easy, but then again she never thought it would be. She stood almost in a arogent pose and awaited her for her team mates to decide on what to do first.

Vashtya
Vash simply blinked. You've got to be kidding me... the thought rose, unbidden, and, without thought, the slender half-elf narrowed his eyes slightly. Shaking his head as if to clear his thoughts, he looked around at the other members of his "group", hoping that the four of them could work well enough to accomplish the mission at hand.

With all the different questions and comments flying around, he was finding it difficult to understand what exactly was going on. Sighing, he shrugged. "I'm Vashtya--but call me Vash. Anyone here know the island's general terrain very well? I guess our first order of business ought to be plotting the route we'll take to the cavern, right?" he asked carefully, not wanting to step on too many toes.

TrinityCowgirl
"Like hell if I do." Sawk glumly replied, folding her gloved arms again. "I came here to relax first, and get away from exploring. Just got outta summer camp, but.. whatever. I'm good with climbing, and hopping, but darkness and navigation? Yeah. Totally sucks, I know, but you'll have to handle those. Who ELSE is on our team, anyway?" She asked, quirking an eyebrow to reveal her baby blue eyes through silver hair.

Rylerion
Rylerion nodded to Vash, choosing to ignore Sawk's rambling for the time being. "I'm fairly new here, and as such had absolutely no idea where this Keelareal cave or whatever that elder said. And as for my name...," he said, a shadow of a smirk appearing behind his mask, "that is a myst..."

"His name is Rylerion, but I think he prefers Ry," Xander quipped in, smiling to the group of humans as he slowly found his courage.

Ry only grumbled, glaring down at his ward. "Fine, don't let me have my moment. You three," he said as he motioned to his group, "figure out where to go, because I'm getting out of this sun." With that, he turned on his heels and started towards the shade, away from the shore line.

Yakobi
Yakobi raised a brow at this Rylerion's actions. What was wrong with him. Turning to the othering in the team she pushed her bright neon pink hair out of her face. Dull orange eyes glanced over her team mates. "I'm Yakobi...Feel free to call me Kobi...or whatever you want." she said her voice dull as she contantly paused in between words. "I just got here, so I have no idea of where anything is." she finished with a shrug.

Vashtya
Struggling to contain a grin, Vash wondered if Sawk and their fourth team member were as amused by Rylerion and Xander's interaction as he'd been. Tilting his head slightly to the side, he wondered what to do next--he'd gotten up early that morning, and his brain...wasn't at it's best. "OK, someone else's turn...any other ideas?" he queried, grinning brightly.

TrinityCowgirl
Grinning a bit, Sawk leaned toward the direction night-boy had gone off to.
"Hey Batman, you can be sneaky in the daylight too! Besides, we need you here!" She teased, wagging a finger on her featherd arms. (Think Rito, from LoZ: WW. Gunna cosplay as that, if they ever make wings.. and I get an autumn Kimono.) Looking back to Vash, she blinked a bit, before looking to Yakobi.
"Well. I've heard of the both of you before, somewhere.." Sawk muttered, having blanked on the WHERE exactly, "but that's not important. We should figure out stuff, like everybody else has said."

Rylerion
Rylerion waved his hand back at his group as he kept on walking, not turning as he spoke. "I can be what I want to be, when I want, but right now I don't want to be hot. If you hadn't noticed, I'm not exactly dressed for an afternoon at the beach, so if you don't mind, I'll just stick to the shadows till you people decide where we're going."

Xander didn't follow his keeper, but instead made a face at his back and settled into the sand. "Dun mind him, he gets cranky when it's hot out. Anyway...maybe one of the other Zoombinis knows...I don't like caves, but the others might. Why don't we ask 'round?" he said, flicking his tail back and forth and pulling his feet up to his body with his hands in a childish fashion.

Yakobi
The girl thought for a moment, none of them really knew where the cave was...And with out that knowlage how were they to comeplete their task? "I sujest that we find out where the cave is so we can be on our way." she spoke, closing her eyes. "Perhaps we should ask someone who might know?" The girl calmly streachted out her arms, standing around was begining to bore her.

Vashtya
Not surprisingly, Vash felt a distinct headache coming on. Great...and we're just getting started... he thought with a mournful sigh. Straightening his shoulders, he glanced back at Yakobi. "I agree--that's most definitely our best bet...otherwise, we're more likely to end up at the bottom of a swamp than at our desired destination..."

Xander frown, pursing his bottom lip out as his heart jumped with anger. Hadn't he just said they should ask around to find where the cave was? The more the humans discussed it, the more the small creature seethed. Why didn't anyone listen to him? He was just as smart as they were, and it was his island after all. He was the Zoombini, and they were just...outsiders! Just like that, he popped up on his feet, flicking his tail with aggitation. "Fine!" he yelled, his voice raising in pitch a few degrees, "If you don't wanna listen to me, then I'll just find this water myself!" As fast as his little legs could take them, he ran towards the winged elder.

Rylerion leaned against a tree, glad to be out of the direct sun but still too hot to be comfortable. Glancing back to make sure he was sure he was being sufficiantly ignored, he turned his back to his group and pulled his mask up by the eye holes, snaking his other hand under it to wipe his sweat away.

He could hear Xander yelling but was too far to make out what was said...but it gave him a sinking feeling none the less. Readjusting his mask and setting it into place, he turn again to see his young companion racing right towards the menacing figure of the angelic eldress. "Xander, wait!" he hollered as he darted out from the shade, hoping Xander wasn't about to do something stupid.

Xander didn't stop till he was nearly upon Illiana, his feet digging into the sand as he screeched to a halt. Panting softly, he looked up and spoke without fear to her. "Miss Elder, could you tell me where the cave is so I can get your water for you?"

Illiana looked down at the child with a somewhat concerned look, "You mean... you don't already know?" She let out a long drawn out sign of displeasure. "Does no one teach you your surroundings? You must have some sort of person who.... instructs you.. of the ways of the world." She shook her head solumnly and pointed far off to the right.. along the waters edge stood a small cap of a rock barely able to seen. "That.. marks where you are heading.. " (sorry my rpee skills are horrible)

The girl watched as Rylerion's little charge walked over to the elder. What was he doing? Was he going to ask for directions? Well if he was...At lest someone was asking. She walked over to Rylerion who was hiding in the shade. Quickly she gave him a poke in the shoulder "What are you a vampire?" she smirked "The sun isn't going to kill you, you know." With a pause she thought "Shouldn't you be watching your charge?" she spoke pointing to Xander.

Rylerion hardly paid Kobi any heed, brushing past her and trying to ignore what she had to say as he persued Xander. He should have known better then to leave that boy alone...though he was often shy around groups, when left alone he was fearless, which led to trouble most of the time. "I'm not a bloody vampire, I'm just hot!"

Xander glanced back to see Rylerion approaching, whimpering a bit in his throat. "Umm...'guess Ry is suppose to be the one showing me around, but he said he didn't know where the cave was either, so...," he said as his eyes followed her motion. He squinted at the distant spot, nodding a little. "Thanks, Miss Elder!" he added as he started off again, running down the beach.

"Xander, wait a minute!!" Rylerion yelled, quickening his pace. He didn't know what was said between the two Zoombinis, but at least they were going somewhere.

"Hey wait a minute!" Yakobi shouted as she began to run after the two. They couldn't just leave. This was suposed to be a team and running off was not very...Team like. The girl pushed her hair out of her face as it had sprung free from behind her ears. "Just wait until I get a word in..." she mumbed upset that she was having to chase after two...Two boys! The little Zoombini definatly picked up his manners from his guardian...Although he did seem more polite at first, they were probably both the same. Running off like that did not please Yakobi.

Xander ran on, his anger of being ignored by the humans waning as he moved further and further from the area he knew and into unfamiliar territory. He slowed his running, moving closer to the water till the surf licked at his toes. Glancing back to see Rylerion and the strange woman from before approaching him, he stopped and trembled a bit, able to tell Ry wasn't very happy with him.

And he was right, Rylerion wasn't happy at all with him and not any more pleased then Yakobi was that he'd run off as he had. Once upon the child, he picked him up and held him at arm's length so they were on eye level with each other. "What were you thinking?! I told you never to talk to strangers like that, and not to run off on your own!" he said in a reprimanding tone.

The young Zoombini turned his head to the side so he didn't have to see Ry's emerald eyes glaring at him, his knees knocking against each other as they hung in the air. He pulled his tail up close to his body, whimpering softly as he was scolded for his rude behavior. "I...I'm sorry...," he whispered, his voice cracking, "they weren't listening to me...I got mad, but I just wanted to help you..." That was all he could manage to get out before hot tears started flowing down his cheeks, unable to contain them any longer.

Rylerion loosened his tight grip on Xander's shoulders as he lowered him back to the ground, kneeling in the process so they were still on the same level. A sigh escaped his lips as he saw how upset his ward was..."Shh...it's alright, Xander," he started, his voice significantly softer then it had been moments before, "I just worry about you. You can't go wandering off alone, you're still young and could get hurt or lost. I'm not that mad, really..." He pulled the child closer to him, embracing him a moment to reassure Xander he wasn't in any trouble.

Finally the two had stoped! Quickly catching up to them the girl ploped herself down on the ground as she caught her breath. Suddenly she turned seeing the little Zoombimi break out into tear. What had happened?! She watched closely as Rylerion gently talked to his charge. She let out a yawn "Well isn't that sweet." she spoke scarcasticly. Dispite how cute that looked, they really didn't have time to be doing anything, but finding the water. "Come on boys, we don't have all day you know."

Groaning, Vash couldn't help but wonder why he ALWAYS got stuck with the drama queens. After all, hadn't the young Zoombini ever stopped to think that maybe, JUST MAYBE, with all of the talk going on, it had been possible that his statement had been overlooked. Ah well, no matter...nothing to be done for it now... he thougth with a small sigh. Wrinkling his nose in vague distaste, he started off after the already barely-visible Rylerion, Xander, and Yakobi. "And we're off to a rocky start..." he muttered.
PostPosted: Fri Jul 08, 2005 9:55 am


Rylerion gave a perturbed side-long glace at Kobi as he lifted Xander off the ground again, holding him to his chest. He wasn't particularly a fan of 'moments' either, but he had to deal with situations as they arose anyway. Still, he was glad this one hadn't lasted long. "Agreed, since the day is waning already. I'll carry Xander, we'll be able to move faster that way," he said as Vash caught his eye, making him turn around. "Well, seems we have at least three of us moving now. No time to waste, come on." With that, he started along the shore again, sticking to the water's edge so hopefully he wouldn't wander off course.

Xander held on to Rylerion with one arm and his tail with the other, chewing on the furry tip of it. While Ry wasn't looking, though, he stuck his tongue out at Yakobi, then quickly replaced the tail in it so he wouldn't be scolded.

Yakobi raised a brow as the young Zoombini stuck his tongue out at her, well maybe she was wrong about the young thing having manners. Keeping her mouth shut she quickly followed behind the two, the less talk the better. They all didn't seem to be getting along all to well. The girl folded her arms and grumbled to herself about something.
PostPosted: Fri Jul 08, 2005 10:53 pm


Xander started to struggle in Rylerion's arms, obviously not wanting to be held like a little baby all the way to the cave. He groaned, straightening his back and then huddling up as he tried to wrench himself free. "I can do it myself!"

Rylerion didn't stand Xander's attitude long, setting him on the sand and leaving him behind as he walked on. "Fine, have it your way. But if you can't keep up, then go back to the village," he said as he slowed, seeing they were nearing the rock structure. He was surprised none of them knew the cave was there since the mouth of it was in plain sight, holding agape like a mout waiting for prey. "...well that looks inviting," he said, pausing and turning back to Yakobi and Vash. "Now that we've gotten this far...any ideas?"

Ideas of what to do? They were standing in front of a huge cave that they had to go into to to complete their task and now they needed ideas? "Well we oviously can't go inside." she spoke scarcasticly looking at Rylerion. "We have to get the holy water, so why not just go in and get it." The girl was getting quite impatient of waiting for things to get done, perhaps it was the little Zoombini sticking his tongue out at her, that set her off, or perhaps it was something more.

[i hate posting without vash...but....]

Rylerion made a sour face, though saved Kobi from having to see it since he was wearing a mask after all. None of them seemed to be in a fair mood or attitude. He closed his eyes, calming his spirit and doing his best not to snap back at her. "Our first order of business should be to find something secure to carry the water in," he said, keeping his voice even. "I don't have anything on me, do you?" he asked, finally opening his eyes again.

Xander settled down at Rylerion's feet, his tail released once more to sway on it's own. His eyes scanned their immediate area. They were closer to the denser forest, the shore having narrowed significantly the closer they came to the cave. Spying something buried in the sand, he wandered off to investigate.

((gawd, mesa sowwies, guys! *luffs on Ry for being her voice of remembrance when it comes to posting here* heart ))

Vash had continued following a short distance behind Rylerion, Yakobi, and Xander, shaking his head ruefully when he'd seen the young Zoombini stick out his tongue at 'kobi--he'd had to admire the young woman for not responding in a like mind to the obviously-still-miffed youngster. As the trio stopped just outside the cavern's gaping maw, the slim (ish xD) half-elf strolled up, wincing at the sarcasm in 'kobi's voice as he fought the urge to roll his eyes. A well-oiled machine they were not.

"I think Ry's right--it does us no good to find the water if we have nothing to carry it out in." he said, his voice pitched low enough to just carry to the pair standing before him--Rylerion's young zoombini had, apparently, decided there were more interesting things to see. "Unless, of course, you'd like to carry it in your mouth, and spit it on the angel?" he continued, quirking an eyebrow at 'kobi, the only rebuke he'd offer--patience WAS a virtue, after all. "somehow, that option lacks a little something, if you ask me.
