::muffled tapping and speech eminating from within the egg shell::
Solt & Peppor:
[Fossil Valley, Alternate World]
"That's not right..." Peppor quickly climbs up the side of the cliff to confront the Dodo bird. "You! Bird!"
[Arni Village, Alternate World]
Leena waved at Una, smirking slightly. "Have fun!" she said, as Una looked miserable. "Be good!" Leena added, shouting at the swimming children, then walking after Kid and waving at her mom, who was at the window.
Leena got a strange feeling that north wasn't the way they needed to go. She stopped and turned. "Hey, Kid? I think maybe we aren't going the way we should be. I just have this strange feeling." she stated, staring south toward Opassa Beach.
[Guldove, Alternate World]
Korcha rushes over to Mel. "Okay, twerp! What'd you do with my marbles?"
[Guldove, Alternate World]
"That's for me to know and you to find out! You'll just have to catch me first!" Mel runs off laughing.
[Guldove, Alternate World]
"I knew it!" shouts Korcha. "I didn't lose my marbles, you stole them!" he rushes after Mel and pulls out his fishing rod. He quickly sends out the line, attempting to catch Mel's clothing on the hook.
[Guldove, Alternate World]
Mel ducks just in time. "HAH! Missed me!" A marble tumbles out of her pocket as she runs in another direction.
[Guldove, Alternate World]
Korcha continues to run after her. "GIVE MY BACK MY MARBLES!" he shouts. Of course, he realizes that sooner or later she'll find herself left without anywhere to run to so he just continues chasing her down the wooden planks.
[Guldove, Alternate World]
Glenn shakes his head, watching Korcha run away, and wonders exactly what he has gotten himself into.
[Guldove, Alternate World]
Mel ran without hesitation until she came to a dead end. She stomped her feet and turned to face an angry Korcha.
[Guldove, Alternate World]
"The marbles..." Korcha says angrily.
[Guldove, Alternate World]
Mel looked around quickly, just to make sure there was no escape route, and then handed him the marbles, pouting.
[Guldove, Alternate World]
Korcha snatched the marbles up and held them above his head where she could not reach them. "Stop stealing my stuff. Of course... if you want to steal something, I have a challenge for you..."
[Guldove, Alternate World]
Mel, always up for a challenge, stomped up to him and said, "What challenge?"
[Guldove, Alternate World]
Glenn wonders what Korcha is up to and decides it's probably no good.
[Arni Village, Alternate World]
Kid looks back at Leena, tapping her foot. "We really need to get a move on, mate. That poor guy's been waitin' fer a long time." The two make their way south and eventually find themselves at Opassa Beach.
[Opassa Beach, Alternate World]
Kid turns around and places her hands on her shoulders. "Nice bloody dead end we have here, ain't it?" she sighs impatiently. "Looks like we'll havta turn back and head fer the north, after all."
Kid takes out her Astra Amulet and holds it in one hand. Lucca... she thinks to herself, sadly. Her eyes are suddenly filled with a look of utter shock. She places her hands on her head and clenches her eyes shut tightly. Her mind is flooded with a barage of what seem like long forgotten memories. The memories she intentionally tried to block out. The intense moment causes her to pass out there on the beach.
[Opassa Beach, Home World]
She awakens shortly thereafter and watches Leena appear from thin air. "What the bloody hell was that?!" she mumbles incoherently. "It was like the future er somethin'. Leena..." she pauses then stops, shaking her head briefly. What I saw...was..Serge! she thinks to herself.
[Opassa Beach, Home World]
Leena, surprised, staggered off balance and fell. She got back up quickly and dusted herself off. "Are you all right?" she ask Kid. "What happened, anyway?"
"Who are you?" someone else asked.
Leena turned around quickly to find... herself? The other Leena gasped. "You're me!" They said at the same time. Things just keep getting stranger and stranger!
[Guldove, Alternate World]
"Sneak into the bar..." Korcha says. "And steal a keg of beer."
[Guldove, Alternate World]
Mel's eyes widened, "Bu...but I could get in a lot of trouble....I don't know." Mel looked down to consider whether or not it was worth risking it.
[Guldove, Alternate World]
Glenn frowns as he catches the tail end of this conversation. What are you talking about Korcha?
[Guldove, Alternate World]
"Since when do you care about getting into trouble?" Korcha asked with a laugh. "Besides, you're the cute little one! Ma ain't gonna punishCHA!"
[Guldove, Alternate World]
"I suppose....Ok, ok." She hadn't done anything like this before but what's wrong with a little fun?
[Guldove, Alternate World]
Glenn comes over, not knowing what Mel is agreeing to but pretty sure its mischevious if Korcha has something to do with it. "What's going on?" He asks as innocently as possible.
