[Termina, Alternate World]

Flea leans up towards Magus, standing on tiptoe and whispering into one pointed ear. "I don't know, he's been acting weird, talking about Princesses and. . ." He shook his head and dropped back onto his feet, glancing at Slash with a raised brow and staying close to Magus.



[Termina, Alternate World]

Serge looked up at Pip. "We'll go as soon as we finish this up. I hope it's soon...I just wanna get back home to my mom. And Leena and the others, for that matter."



[Termina, Alternate World]

Kid glares a bit at Ozzie's comments. "Tubbs is different from the rest of 'em. Better keep an eye on him, can't trust 'em." she comments to herself.

Her eyes narrow as she hears Serge's comment about the panther demon. "So, he is back in the Manor now." she says, talking to herself. "Just like I thought, bloody hell..."

Kid's eyes widen in shock as she overhears Magus's comment and watches him begin to waltz off towards Viper Manor's front gate. "'Ey, wait just a sec!" she calls out as she runs up and stands firmly in his path. "Now, it's one thing if yer headin' to the front gates to deal with those guards ...but... 'I' NEED to confront that panther demon first 'n foremost. Got it?" she states, unmoving and very sincere. "This is VERY important ta me."



[Termina, Alternate World]

"Hmm..." Ozzie mutters. "We could probably make better use of our efforts if we all knew what everyone else needed to do in the manor... As I've said, I'm looking for the princess."



[Termina, Alternate World]

"I wanna go to the Zoo!" Pip says.



[Termina, Alternate World]

"Can we just hurry up?" asks Korcha.



[Termina, Alternate World]

Kid remains locked in eye contact with Magus for several more seconds before brushing past him, heading back towards the boat. "Just remember, 'I' get first dibbs on that Lynx bastard." she calls back at Magus one more time. "Ya can have a crack at him when I'm done with what a havta do."

She walks the rest of the way over to the boat and crosses her arms near the shore. "I second that, let's get our arses in gear." she adds with a nod to Korcha.

Kid just makes a 'hmph' sound as a reply to Ozzie's statement. "My business is nothin' I care to devulge to a shifty mate like you, tubbs. All any of ya need know is that my business is with Lynx, fer the most part." she replies. She closes her eyes tightly and turns her back to everyone for a few moments.



[Termina, Alternate World]

Magus nods, "If you say so. I just want to talk to this Lynx, though, and if I wait for you he might be out of commission befoe I get that chance." Then Magus is gone..



[Termina, Alternate World]

"I know what Lynx did to you," Ozzie says with a laugh. "And if I had the chance, I would've done the same. She was a thorn in my side. But that is in the past... As it is... We must get into the manor!"



[Termina, Alternate World]

Korcha merely rolls his eyes. "Can everyone else riding just GET IN?!?!?"



[Termina, Alternate World]

Luccia heads for the boat, frowning distastefuly as she gets in.



[Termina, Alternate World]

Serge blinks at Ozzie. "Have you no manners? Sheeeeze. Be a little nicer to her, the panther demon got me, too. WHY, I don't know. I'm dead...so why does he want me if I'm dead in this world? This really makes no sense...I wanna go back to the Manor and find out what he wanted with me...no one screw the plan up." Serge tucks Pip under one arm. "We'll go to the zoo, Pip. And you can see a big panther there."



[Termina, Alternate World]

"I have no idea why he wants you, either. All I know, is there is someone in the manor who I must speak with," Ozzie responds. "As for being nicer to Kid... Tell me this, Kid... If you do manage to defeat Lynx, and someone weeps for him... Will you comfort them?"



[Termina, Alternate World]

"ZOO!" Pip shouts.



[Termina, Alternate World]

Korcha rolls his eyes.



[Termina, Alternate World]

Kid shoots Ozzie a nice big scowl for his first comment. "I'm not surprised in the least. Who asked you, anyway, tubbs?" she retorts with a bit of an attitute. "And as fer comforting someone over his death, I'll cross that bridge when I get there. Can't imagine someone being hurt over a 'loss' like that, tho." she replies with a hint of resentment towards the whole matter.

"Thanks, mate." she nods at Serge. She then notices the impatient Korcha. "I agree with the red head. We should get movin', mates."



[Termina, Alternate World]

"Exactly how I feel on the matter of the inventor," Ozzie comments to Kid. "Still, now I see... This Lynx must have a family, you realize that, right? Possibly a child who will become your unlikely ally even after he is dead." He chuckles a bit to himself.



[Termina, Alternate World]

"ALL ABOARD!" shouts Korcha.



[Termina, Alternate World]

Kid raises an eyebrow at the remark. "Gotta by hypothetical er somethin'." she thinks to herself as she shrugs, turns to walk away.

She aknowledges Korcha and slowly walks over to his boat. She hesitantly sits where mentioned to before and sighs. Leaning off one side, she sticks her hand in the water and becomes lost in thought. "Can't be any logic there." she whispers to herself.



[Termina, Alternate World]

Serge blinks, looking for Van. He knew Leena, but not Van. Serge allowed Pip to sit on his head for the time being, growing attatched to the puff ball. He picked up his Swallow and looked around. "Well, if they're not coming, I'm heading to the manor to wait until we can enter. See ya guys." Serge headed out of town onto the field to head to Viper Manor.



[Termina, Alternate World]

Guile makes his way to the boat. "If you wish to know how long the trip will be, ask the farrier." He sits down, his hair making a very final slap against his back as he does so, as if to indicate that no one will remove him from his position on the boat. "If we are to attack from both sides at once, those who will be making a diversion ought to know when to start."



[Termina, Alternate World]

"By the way," Korcha mutters. "This is gonna cost ya 300G... That's 100 G per person, but Kid gets to ride for free."



[Termina, Alternate World]

Luccia turned to Guile, raising both eyebrows at him curiously. The boat was most uncomfortable, but at least it wasn't as bad as it could have been - it was dry. "Do you know vhy it is ve are attacking Viper Manor in de first place? My job is in de Manor, though I gatter I vill be in much trouble after dis leetle jaunt." she laughed, "Ohohohoho."



[Termina, Alternate World]

Kid flinches briefly and uncomfortably at the comment, her eyes still asphyxiated on the water. "Why do I have mixed feelings 'bout this trip?" she wonders to herself as one eye twitches and her tint reddens.



[World Map, Alternate World]

Magus walks through the country side, his gaze falling back to his three one time companions. He feels a bit jumpy about working with them again. He got so used to working with the others; Crono, Marle, Luccia, Robo that he wasn't sure he remembered how to combine his actions with Slash, Ozzie and Flea anymore. Surely they were still just as powerful maybe more. He did have an idea though...
