Siren fell over laughing, Rai clinging to her. as her head touched the soft grass, a quick shocking pain shot through the back of her head. She reached up as a reflex, feeling the bump she still had from where Tensho had hit her. She shook her head and turned back towards Rai, reaching out and ticklng her.
"You may have won at tag, but we'll see who wins the tickle match!"

Rai began to giggle uncontrollably, kicking and squirming as her eyes closed tightly. She giggled so hard she couldn't even breath! She was laughing, trying to reach out and tickle Siren, but she didn't manage getting past protecting herself from Siren's tickles.
"S-siren! No f-fair!" she said giggling.
"S-siren! No f-fair!" she said giggling.
Mizuki busied herself with cooking. She busied herself so much that she made an over abundance of food. 5 plates of hotcakes, sausage to go for 2 more days... simply said..a lot.
Blade crawled around on the floor and munch on the random bites Mizuki slipped down to him. She tried to keep her mind off f Soran, and where he was now. But it ws hard. She always imagined him locked up in the dark... then someone would come and...
She dropped a plate. It didn't shatter. But she found it odd, she was only having horrible daydreams, they wouldn't normal scare her that much...

Mizuki was just setting everything up on the table. Though she had made a successfull breakfast, it still failed to take her mind off of Soran. She had a hard time remembering that they were currently, for now, only four people.
"He'll come back..." she asked herself. "Right...?" she was uncertain, confused, scared, and still angry.

Rai seemed to lose her cheerful mood suddenly as the wind caught her curly locks. She had been on her way inside, stepping up onto the porch. She felt a weird feeling come over her, as if something bad was happening.
Rai had this happened before, but it hadn't happened in such a long time... Since before Gabriel... Well, at least thats how she remembered it.
Why was it showing up now?
She remembered being about to have weird feelings and be all strange. Some people called her wize. She didn't know exactly what wize meant but...
Her head turned around to the forest, her eyes looking around. The strange feeling didn't seem to be coming from the woods. It was something else... She turned around on the porch, her innocent child eyes scanning the suroundings.
It was a bad feeling. A horrible feeling. Like when she saw the corpses that day and when Shea tried to make Mizuki hand her over... or when Soran was sick and she wanted to heal him...
Had it been that long?
"Soran?" she asked softly, wondering if thats why she felt bad.
But, Soran was only going to be gone for a few days... He'd be... Were they lying to her because she was a child? That wasn't right. Why wouldn't they tell her where her adopted father was going? Unless he wasn't coming back at all.
Rai narrowed her eyes, her nose scrunching up. She turned on her heal and walked rather hard into the house. She put her tiny hands on her tiny hips and her lips poked out.
"You're all liars!" she said loudly. "He isn't coming back! I want Soran!"

OOC: I have forgotten that Rai has some talents besides healing:P
IC: Siren hadn't known Rai before. Well, she might have noticed that there was something different about Rai. That she wasn't your ordinary child.
She turned towards Siren with that same narrowed stair and wrinkled her nose again. "A feeling," she said lowly.
"Something bad is happening. Something very, very bad. The bad things took him, didn't they!!"

A cold shiver ran up Siren's spine, causing her to shake a bit to relieve it.
She wasn't sure how to respond, rather wished Mizuki would bail her out, but also knew that Rai wouldn't wait before jumping to conclusions.
"He went to stop the people who hurt you. I don't know where he has gone or what is going on exactly, but... He'll be back." She paused. "There's nothing we can do at the moment, not knowing where he is. You'll just have to trust him."

Mizuki stood there with her back to Rai and Siren, listening with a solemn expression to Rai's crying out the she wanted Soran home.
"I trust Soran! But... I don't trust them. They will hurt him. They are hurting him! I know it... I know it! Please! I want to go find him! Please!!" cried Rai. Mizuki's body shuddered. She wanted to reassure herself and Rai that he'd be fine no matter what, but her better judgment tugged at her.
"Yes." Mizuki responded quietly. "We will find him..." Mizuki sighed deeply. "Siren... take Blade to..." The blob appeared on her shoulder and squeaked. An image formed in her mind of the blob staying with Blade. Mizuki nodded to it and turned to the others. "Pack provisions. I'll make Blade a pack for you to take with you Siren... I can't risk him in what I'm about to do. Rai has proven herself capable of fighting.. Blade is only a baby. Take him back to your fortress so he can learn his heritage. This guy will come with you to be with Blade." Mizuki scooped up the little blob and placed him in Siren's hands. She smiled sadly up at Siren, but her eyes shown strength. She knew what she was doing.

Siren sighed, looking first at the blob in her hands, then Rai, then Mizuki.
"Don't you dare go do anything reckless without me," she warned, "If it's reckless I had better be within range, or there'll be hell to pay later when all this is resolved. I'll take Blade to our people, despite the abusive glances Soran might give me later, but I'm eating whatever that smell in the kitchen is first."
With that, she tossed the little blob onto the couch as she walked past it and into the kitchen. A call followed her: "And if that little ball of black goo poops on me you're cleaning it."
She felt strangely excited to finally be on the verge of doing something active again.
