Rei quickly got out of her chair, kneeling beside the girl. "Tosh," she whispered, rolling her onto her back. She checked her vitals and found nothing to be wrong. She looked at Zergio, then the chimes, then back at Tosh.

Soon, there was a soft snoring sound as she mumbles something about sweets, the Tooth Fairy and a dancing gold koala bear.

Will sighed, then headed up stairs.

"Im dreadfully sleepy, so im gonna go to bed. night."

Will walked to Rei's couch and crashed on it

[[and im outta this thread for now]]

"G'night," Rei said and watched the boy leave. She looked down at the sleeping form on the ground and shook her head. Rei picked the girl up and went up the flight of stairs to where she lived and placed Tosh on a spare cot.

"What a mess this is," Rei muttered to herself, but she could not help but smile at the strange turn of events.

by **Toshii** Mon Jan 17, 2011 5:14 am

Tosh rolled over, yawning and looked content and peaceful. A small smile crossed her face.

[ i'm going to bed right now Surprised

Rei lay down on her bed, book in hand, and began to read. Her life had turned on its head in a single afternoon. She was starting to feel excited about the turn of events that would come in the morning.

[ G'night, Yoshi~ ^^ ]

"A bookstore above a bakery. This must be the place," the woman said, squinting in the afternoon sunshine.

She hesitated, looking down at the alchemy book in her hands. How was she supposed to even know who to give this to?? I could always just keep it, I suppose. But where's the fun in that?? Perhaps she'd just go in and look around; scope it out.

The bakery was a distraction. A big one. She found herself looking at all the cakes, cookies, and patries with sincere longing. Afterall, the last thing she had eaten was that roasted snow leopard... By the time she found the spiral stairs that led up to the bookstore, she had a bag full of sweets, and a much lighter pocket to show for it.

The bookstore looked smaller than it was. She skimmed a few of the book racks, looking for memorized titles, plucked them from the shelves, and carried the teetering pile to a small table. The store was quiet and so she began to read.

Tosh poked her head from behind the counter with a chicken balancing on her had. "Hey there stranger!" She greeted Dwyrin taking out a potato.

by **Yoyo** Mon Jan 17, 2011 8:01 pm

"'Ma'am' or 'miss,' Tosh," Rei corrected as she came out of the bookshelves, a small stack of books cradled in her left arm, her right hand in her trench coat pocket. "It's nicer to call strangers polite names rather than just 'stranger'. Manners."

Rei set her books on the counter, leaned against it, and smiled politely. "Can I help you with anything?"

by **zergio** Mon Jan 17, 2011 8:02 pm

Will was organizing the books by age, name, and size, getting the bookstore all clean. Then he began to dust the store

by **Toshii** Mon Jan 17, 2011 8:05 pm

Tosh took the chicken from off her head and set it down as it started clucking away out the door. "Bye byes Mr. Thigh!" Tosh said as she waved at the chicken.

by **zergio** Mon Jan 17, 2011 8:16 pm

Will saw the chicken run, grabbing him and stroking his feathers.

"How would you like to live on my farm? ^^"

by **Toshii** Mon Jan 17, 2011 8:18 pm

The chicken studied Will for a second before nodding, surprisingly. "Alright, cluckers! You gots a new home!" Tosh cheered.

by **zergio** Mon Jan 17, 2011 8:20 pm

Will placed the chicken on his head and smiled

"I'll make sure you get lots of company~"

by **Toshii** Mon Jan 17, 2011 8:22 pm

Tosh smiled and stepped into a spot and was soon hoisted up when a rope knot caught her ankle. Now she was upside down, her hair hanging down, including her bangs but she held up her skirt and shirt. "I forgot about that trap..." she commented before sweatdropping.

by **Yoyo** Mon Jan 17, 2011 8:23 pm

Rei stared at the upside-down Tosh. "Wh-what did you do?" she stammered.

by **zergio** Mon Jan 17, 2011 8:24 pm

Will tied a rope around her skirt so it wouldn't revel anything while she hanged.

"1: Don't make traps. Please. 2: How do I get you down?"

by **Toshii** Mon Jan 17, 2011 8:28 pm

"Oh. Well you see last night I went hunting and I caught a doe. Then this guy in the military who was having food with another person yelled at me for disturbing them so I set up a trap in case he came after me because he looked pretty angry." Tosh simply blinked after saying that. "Oh and uh just cut the rope on the stair rail. Hold on." Tosh took a black fingerless glove from her pocket, slipping it on. The glove has a transmutation circle on it in white.

She clapped her hands together before she threw her hand on the wall. A green transmutation circle glowed from from wall as a red hilt started to appear. Soon the entire blade came out as a Arabian sumara sword. Tosh grabbed the handle, tossing it to Will. "Catch!"

by **Yoyo** Mon Jan 17, 2011 8:31 pm

Rei watched calmly, nodding. Of course she would have two alchemists staying with her, and the newest one could perform alchemy at a distance.

"Again with the clapping," she muttered. She left Will to cut the poor girl down, trying her best to keep from slapping herself in the head.

by **zergio** Mon Jan 17, 2011 8:35 pm

Will jumped and yelled in shock, falling over and scurrying away from the blade as it lands, the blade slicing into the floor

"ARE YOU CRAZY!?!?!?!?!?!?!?"

by **Toshii** Mon Jan 17, 2011 8:38 pm

Tosh thought it over for a moment before responding. "Actually yes! Hahahahaha!" Tosh started laughing hysterically. "Besides, who said a little crazyness never hurt anybody?" Tosh chuckled.

by **Yoyo** Mon Jan 17, 2011 8:44 pm

"It almost hurt Will," Rei said, walking over to the two. "Throwing sharp things at someone who isn't ready isn't nice."

Rei picked up the weapon and leaned it against the wall. She placed her left hand on the gash in the floor, fixing it easily with alchemy. Then she stood and looked at Tosh. "If I cut the rope, will you need me to catch you or will you be able to land on your feet? I don't want you landing on that poor head of yours."

by **zergio** Mon Jan 17, 2011 8:45 pm

Will put a cushion beneath tosh.

"Better safe the sorry"

by **Toshii** Mon Jan 17, 2011 8:46 pm

"Sorry, Giomon! Aaaaaaand I think I can land on my two feet." Tosh said to Rei.

by **Yoyo** Mon Jan 17, 2011 8:50 pm

Rei nodded picked up the strange weapon Tosh had created. She made a mental note to make sure she found materials to replace those she had used taken from the wall to create it. She swung it at the rope above Tosh's feet, easily slicing through the rope.
