Seashell...

[Toadess]

The elf plopped down onto the sand, watching the waves roll onto the shore. The calm serenity of the beach filled her heart with bliss as she closed her eyes and listened to the waves silently.

Fyia... it's so big here... so many people...

Toadess opened her eyes, calmly looking out at the horizon.

Not like Ria at all... and yet...

Her eyes were drawn to te next wave. It washed across the sand and over her feet, then receded back to the ocean, leaving behind a large seashell. Toadess smiled as she carefully picked it up and held it in her palm, wiping off the wet sand with her fingers.

<<Flashback>>

"Momma! Look! A seashell!" The child's eyes danced with delight as she tugged at the hems of her mother's dress, pointing vigorously.
"My, my Toadess, you have a good eye!" The mother gently picked it up, stroking off it's glimmering surface.
"Shells are very magical things, Toadess. If you put the shell to your ear, close your eyes, and listen really hard, you can almost hear the sound of the ocean within it." The child's eyes lit up with excitement as her mother smiled back at her warmly.

The elf sighed sadly before placing the shell to her ear. Closing her eyes, she listened intently.
"I WISH THEY ALL COULD BE CALIFORNIA GUUUUUURRRRLLLLS!" The Beach Boys blared into Toadess' ear as she gave a terrified scream.
"WHAT KIND OF BEACH IS THIS!?" She roared, throwing the shell into the sand in front of her.

Chii was crouched above a small scuttling animal, when..

Chii: WAIT! I'M NOT CHII! WAGH! *grumble grumble*

*erases her entry and skulks away*

^.^ ))

[Toadess]

((Wagh! We want Chii back! ))

[KuraiGekkou]

Kurai stumbled backwards from his hiding place from shock of the music from the bushes down a sandy hill.

"ow...ow...ow...oww.....OW!!! CRAB!!! OMG!! AHHH!! MY EAR!!! *rip* AHHHHHHHH AHHHHHHHH!!!" and he ran around in circles creating a big circle in the ground.

".... bakas.." Kurai threw a simple fireball at the stereo scaring some of the teenagers away from the beach as one of the ran around butt naked fanning his ass.

he then turned to Toadess getting a fireball ready. "and you baka...maka...whoa! do i know you? oh wait your just Toadess..." Kurai sighed then leaned back into the sand then after a min of thought he shot up again.

"TOADIE!? how the hell did you get here!?"

[Toadess]

Toadess glanced around at the naked people running around, utterly shocked. She then turned to Kurai, as a growing frown appeared on her face. Her anger became apparent as she swung her backpack around her head dangerously.
"You...you... PERVERT! SPYING ON SKINNYDIPPERS! ARE YOU REALLY THAT LOW!?" Toadie began to beat him merciliously with her pack, eyes blazing with fury.
"YOU DISGUSTING LIL...PERVERT!"

[KuraiGekkou]

After about the 3rd blow Kurai grabbed the bag from Toadess's hands and threw it away from both of them.

"They were not skinny dipping! its not my fault human have flammable Swimsuits! and if i was what would you explain yourself as doin?" Kurai rubbed his forehead and stood up.

"peh.. stupid Elfen gurls.. thats why i hate em neways" he mummbled

[Toadess]

"Oh...uhm..." The elf looked down, seemingly embarassed.
"I'm sorry, Kurai." She mumbled, looking down at the sand.
"I'm here because..." She glanced up at Kurai's irritated face, then continued.
"Because I dun have a home to go home to. I'm a newbee in Fyia..." The elf smiled, then grinned, giving Kurai a suspicious look.
"So why are YOU here, huh?" Toadie smirked, then put on her Kurai accent, mocking his voice.
"Kurai, are you stalking me?"

[KuraiGekkou]

Kurai looked up at the sky after Toadess finished her talking.

"im here cause i got stuff to do and thats that. I came here cause i was looking for some person and my eye caught attention to these teens here."

Kurai then let some sand pour off his hand as he leaned back into the sand.

"i havent found a nice quite place for a while and this will do for now." Kurai said as if he was looking for a rest spot.. (duh).

"but i bet itll be more quite if you were gone Kurai muttered.

[Toadess]

The elf fumed, then swallowing a heavy sigh, looked sadly at Kurai.
"Yeah, you're probably right..." The elf mumbled before walking away.
