10:34] <weeds41> hello kikuko

[10:35] Kikuko sits up and grins.. "Mr Weeds..!"

[10:35] weeds41 switches on eyes, fingers and defreezes brain

[10:36] <weeds41> hello kiku , how are you?

[10:36] <Kikuko> good Mr Weeds.. think the effect of the poison is all gone. how are you?..

[10:36] weeds41 realizes he is still in the dungeon

[10:36] <weeds41> fine now

[10:37] <weeds41> i am awake ! woot ! woot !

[10:37] <weeds41> where is deyko ?

[10:37] Deyko is leaning on the wall of the dungeon with his arms folded .. head bowed and eyelids clasped while listening ..

[10:37] Deyko said in a quiet voice .. "Right here.."

[10:37] weeds41 turns to deyko

[10:38] Deyko opens his eyes .. "Did you rest ok..?"

[10:38] <weeds41> i think the poison made me sleep longer than usual

[10:38] Kikuko grins.. rolls up her blanket and fastens it to the top of her pack.. stuffs her notebook back into a pocket and rises to her feet..

[10:38] Deyko nods .. "So did I .. if you're not all right we can remain longer."

[10:39] <weeds41> oh no ; i am fine ; let's carry on the expedition

[10:39] weeds41 rolls his blanket and puts it back into his bag

[10:39] Deyko nods .. looking over towards the portal .. "All right .. from here on out, this is the last room we'll check. If this next room isn't the last one .. we'll exit the doors by force."

[10:41] <weeds41> ok

[10:43] weeds41 puts his bag on his back , takes his staff ...

[10:43] Deyko walks in front of the warp .. hands balled up .. and head bowed .. a low stare on his features as he prepared himself mentally for the next challenge ...

[10:45] weeds41 thinks of the new adventure ahead of them and wonders if they will have the rolling ball on their way once more

[10:45] Kikuko tosses a bit of detritus toward the warp point.. it instantly vanishes..looks at Deyko and Mr Weeds.."Welp.. that is working.. we ready?"

[10:45] <weeds41> ready here

[10:45] Deyko nods .. looking behind .. "Stay close .. just incase.." He sighed .. and walked towards the light shutting one eyelid as it flashed ..

[10:46] weeds41 walks to the light too staying close to his companions

[10:46] Kikuko steps up beside Mr Weeds and Deyko. staff held firmly in her hand

[10:47] <Twyncles> Narrator> The party is instantly deposited in a small room...over their heads without warning looms a nine foot tall carrion worm.. the eight tentacles around its small mouth reaching hungrily for the travelers

[10:48] Kikuko looks up at a blurry thing like a snake reaching for her and Mr Weeds.. swiftly and instinctively uses her staff in a parrying blow.. "Crickety ... 'ware all ..tis a carrion worm. the tentacles will paralyse us if they touch us"

[10:48] Deyko felt his eyes narrow at the gigantic creature. He looked around the tiny room and nicked his teeth. The fiend took up more of the room's space. He ducked down .. and leapt towards its mouth. "Have at thee, fiend!"

[10:49] Kikuko grabs Mr Weeds and slides them both sideways to give Deyko room to work..

[10:49] weeds41 sees the horrifying creature whiping the air with its tentacles

[10:49] Deyko flipped as he landed on top of its head .. and felt it jerk about in fury .. he performed a swift somersault wanting to bounce himself free but collides with the wall. Chunks of debris burst free, raining in a noisy spectacle of stone and dust.

[10:49] Kikuko moves her staff in a blur of moves to keep the paralysing tentacles away from them

[10:50] <Kikuko> Deyko!... we need to knock it out!

[10:50] weeds41 whips the air too with his staff

[10:50] Deyko lands in a squat, balancing a palm on the floor as he eyes it calmly. He wasn't here to try to destroy anything .. he had to find a more peaceful way of shutting it down but protect his comrades .. he nods. "I know .. I'm working on it..!"

[10:51] weeds41 looks up and sees the ceiling looks old and ready to fall

[10:51] Kikuko moves to the side of the worm.. keeps poking it..lets Mr Weeds. distract it on the other side..

[10:51] Deyko took forward in a jog .. he leapt up with a flash of speed and drew his fist back. Slinging his knuckles forward, he let them slam on top of the creature at the same time a tentacle licked him.

[10:51] weeds41 goes on whirling and whipping the air

[10:51] <Kikuko> Watch those mouth parts Mr Weeds.. *swats furiously at the worm*

[10:52] weeds41 practises an old technique of wild animal tamer

[10:52] Deyko grunts, falling and one of his arms hang limply at the side as he hits the floor on his shins, a loud 'thwack' resounding as he winced in frustration .. the same arm that was caught was the one that hit him .. he wasn't sure if the blow finished it ..

[10:52] Kikuko fumbles around in the pouch Kenji had given her..finds a bomb with a sleep kanji mark on it..

[10:52] weeds41 keeps the tiny eyes of the animal fixing the staff

[10:53] <Kikuko> Deyko..got a sleep gas bomb here.. but we need to get it into the critters mouth or we will all fall asleep

[10:53] Deyko stands with a limp arm .. and snarls .. the beast was a bit large to knock out with brute force without slaying it at the same time .. he looked to see what Kikuko had ..

[10:53] weeds41 turns the staff clockwise then anticlockwise

[10:53] Deyko holds his arm that was still working out. "Here.. Weeds has it distracted.."

[10:54] Kikuko glances sideways.. eyes widen in admiration. Mr Weeds can use a staff way good..

[10:54] <weeds41> the tiny eyes roll around

[10:54] Kikuko nods.. tosses the sleep gas bomb accurately to Deyko..

[10:54] weeds41 speeds up ; the staff is now turning like mad

[10:55] Deyko he caught it in his good hand. He looks to Weeds .. then to the creature .. with an annoyed glare he noticed the tentacles would be in the way .. he raced forward bare feet taking off across the stone floor ...

[10:55] weeds41 hears the worm grunts

[10:55] Deyko leaps up .. and heads for its mouth, but gets engulfed by some of the tentacles !

[10:55] Kikuko sees the tiny eyes of the carrion worm beginning to follow the whirling staff with beady hypnotic attention

[10:55] <Kikuko> ack!.. Deyko???>.

[10:56] Deyko was gone .. there is silence except for the releasing of fumes coming out of the mouth and raising in a steamy fashion ..

[10:56] weeds41 turns the staff all of a sudden anticlockwise

[10:56] <Kikuko> urk.. where did he go?..

[10:56] weeds41 sees deyko has disappeared

[10:57] <weeds41> let's go on quick

[10:57] Kikuko looks around anxiously.. "Mr Weeds?.. now what..ack.. wait. we have to get this thing out of here first.. it will be very testy when the gas wears off...

[10:57] <weeds41> kiku, ready to throwyour staff to the ceiling right above the worm head and rush to safety

[10:58] Deyko grunts .. trying to move but he's inside of the mouth and paralyzed from the tentacles .. he tries to move once more .. but struggles to keep his eyes open .. "Paralyzed .. and sleepy .. tch.."

[10:58] <weeds41> the worm will be hypnoptized in 10seconds

[10:58] <Kikuko> No.. we are all right.. the worm is stunned.. can't hurt us..either way right now.. bleh.. think Deyko is inside its mouth..ewww..

[10:59] Deyko felt his eyelids flutter once .. lowering .. as the kitsune ears above his head twitched in light spasms .. then he slumps down unconscious ..

[10:59] <Kikuko> Mr Weeds..hate to be the one to break the bad news..<grins> but we got to pry the  maw open and get Deyko out of there..

[10:59] <weeds41> ok

[11:00] weeds41 gets closer to the worm

[11:00] <Kikuko> hmnn.. well.. staffs should help.. if you can use them to keep it open long enough. I will drag Deyko out

[11:01] <weeds41> i am holding it now , will you manage kiku ?

[11:01] <weeds41> bleh ! it stinks

[11:01] Deyko feels himself leak out .. and the worm is awakening once again already .. !

[11:01] <weeds41> let's hurry up to get him out

[11:02] <Kikuko> gah..yes.. they do.. ewww. ewww..ewwww... *gingerly sticks her head into the maw of the monster..grabs Deyko by the arm and hauls him out with a grunt...

[11:02] <Kikuko> Bah!..ack! *falls backward with Deyko to the floor.. okay Mr Weeds.. he is clear.. jump back.. thing is sort of coming too

[11:02] Deyko splashes on the floor in a pile of fluid but is still asleep and paralyzed even .. and the carrion worm is much angrier then before

[11:02] weeds41 can see kiku has much strength but helps her to pulls deyko away

[11:03] weeds41 from the monster

[11:03] Deyko opens his eyelids .. the sleep wearing off of him quickly from his species .. he tries to move and realized he's still paralyzed .. "Nn!"

[11:03] Kikuko pants and snorts. the stench in her nostrils for life it seems.."feh.. malodorous  Mr Weeds.."

[11:03] Deyko calls out .. One of you .. remove a strand of hair for my head..hurry.."

[11:04] weeds41 does it

[11:04] <Kikuko> Deyko..huh?..okay.. sees weeds yank out a hair

[11:04] <weeds41> here you are

[11:04] Kikuko keeps a wary eye on the worm

[11:04] Deyko tries to squirm, but can't even feel his shoulder budge as it's heading towards them .. the hair strand is removed .. and he continues .. "Okay .. swing it around .. it should become like a spider's web.."

[11:05] weeds41 swings it around

[11:05] <Kikuko> Go ahead Mr Weeds.. I will keep an eye on our friend here..

[11:05] <weeds41> the strand gets longer and divides into smaller strands

[11:05] Deyko keeps on eyelid open .. "I think you should trap the legs .. and hypnotise it .. if possible ... if you can find a crack .. try to .. get rid of it .. like with the giant spider ... maybe the room will clear..."

[11:06] Kikuko assumes a defensive stance.. keeps her staff at the ready..nods toward Mr Weeds.. "Go for it Mr Weeds.. <grins >"

[11:06] weeds41 uses his other hand to twirl the staff and hypnotise the worm

[11:07] Deyko watches weeds out of the corner of his eyes .. a small smile on his features ..

[11:07] <weeds41> while doing so observes the room around and sees a big crack at the back of the room

[11:08] Kikuko sees the webbing entangle the worms legs.. it falls over.. with a squishy muted doom!

[11:08] <Kikuko> bleh.. Mr Weeds.. now what.. see a crack or hole we can push it into?

[11:08] <weeds41> come on kiku let's drag it there , at the back of the room

[11:08] <weeds41> and push it into it

[11:09] <Kikuko> Okay.. *takes the other side and starts helping to slide the huge creature toward the back of the room..

[11:09] weeds41 grabs the web

[11:10] <weeds41> the monster slides little by little

[11:10] <Kikuko> hm.. Mr Weeds.. crack is too small .. need to make it bigger... just a moment . I will use my tone technique to open it ..

[11:10] <weeds41> ok

[11:11] <weeds41> bleh! disgusting animal ; wouldn't have it in a circus show !

[11:11] Deyko can no longer watch from this position .. he feels the paralysis wear off .. and he pushed himself up with one hand .. stand slowly ..

[11:11] <weeds41> can you manage kiku ?

[11:11] Deyko walks with heavy steps .. a numbness still tingling itself through his legs and arms .. head bowed

[11:11] Kikuko centers herself.. lays a hand on the crack and begins to focus a low hum through her fingers... the crack begins to drift with bits of dust and small stones as the directed vibrations ..break it open...

[11:11] weeds41 looks back and sees deyko is getting better

[11:12] <weeds41> gooood!

[11:12] <Kikuko> hah.. yep.. got it. now.. one last push Mr Weeds.. and gravity should do the rest.. then I will seal the crack..it appears to lead to the things den

[11:12] weeds41 gathers his strength and nods

[11:12] Kikuko gets her shoulder into the side of the worm.. winks at Mr Weeds.. "On three?..then we shove..?"

[11:13] <weeds41> ok

[11:13] Kikuko counts.. 1....2.... 3.....*gives the beast her all.. feels it move with Mr Weeds.. shoving hard on the other side of it..*

[11:14] Deyko straightens himself out .. the best he can .. and centers himself .. he squeezes his fist and the last of the paralysis juices squirt out of him ..

[11:14] weeds41 shoves and feels the worm get into the crack

[11:14] Kikuko sees the monster topple slowly over the edge and down down down into the darkness below..

[11:15] <Kikuko> woot Mr Weeds.. we did it.. now.. a moment.. I will seal the crack..

[11:15] <weeds41> kiku is red  :blush: but looks victorious

[11:15] Deyko watches with a look of hidden pride .. he wondered something .. but he didn't announce it aloud ..

[11:15] Kikuko giggles.. blushes some more.. doesn't usually use her psi abilities but this time it was needed

[11:16] weeds41 lets kiku seal the crack and walks to deyko

[11:16] <weeds41> how are you deyko ?

[11:16] Kikuko nods.. then ..brings her tones back and sends it down her hand.. the wall trembles.. slowly closes to  a hairline crack... dusts off her hands and lets the remaining psi force subsume back into her chi

[11:17] Deyko turns .. facing weeds he nods his head. "I'm fine .. nothing touched you did it..?"

[11:17] Kikuko sighs.. sneezes.. then joins Mr Weeds and Deyko..

[11:17] weeds41 takes out his pink handkie and holds it out to deyko

[11:17] <weeds41> you can use it to clean your face and hands !

[11:17] <weeds41> they look all sticky

[11:18] Deyko blinks, a flush appearing at the color of the handkie. He clears his throat .. turning away to wipe at his face and hands .. long hair moving it a smooth sway as he spins.

[11:18] <Deyko> * in a smooth sway

[11:19] Deyko kept his head turned away hidden by his hair, face stained with a shade of crimson. He held out the handkie. "..I .. I thank you."

[11:19] Kikuko sees that Mr Weeds is taking care of Deyko. starts looking around the small room for the clue..pokes through the bits of debris with her staff..

[11:19] weeds41 ;-) to kiku; she did a good job indeed

[11:23] <Deyko> (( welcome back ))

[11:24] Kikuko sees that Mr Weeds is tending to Deyko. she stirs through the detritus on the floor looking for the clue that will get them out of the locked room

[11:24] <weeds41> kiku can you see something in the debris ?

[11:25] <Kikuko> no.. if it is the waffle bit like all the others it is the same color as the rubbish on the floor..

[11:25] Deyko continues searching himself .. a distant expression on his features as he does so.

[11:25] <Kikuko> How is Deyko.. um.. Deyko.. yo all right?..Think you got paralysed and slimed that time

[11:26] weeds41 pushes the debris aside with his staff

[11:26] Kikuko pokes around.. quartering back and forth

[11:26] Deyko shakes his head .. "I'm all right. You both were impressive again."

[11:26] Da_ffyd [Da_ffyd@Da_ffyd] has left #MagicalAirs

[11:27] <weeds41> in the sticky liquid left by the worm there is something ; bleh !

[11:27] weeds41 pushes it with his staff

[11:27] Deyko scoots aside some more .. then looks over to the liquid .. he walks over .. and pulls out the slimy clue ..

[11:27] Deyko holds up the waffle clue ..

[11:27] <Deyko> Hn ..

[11:27] weeds41 comes closer

[11:28] Deyko watches it drip slime .. and says aloud .. "We've got it."

[11:28] <weeds41> woot ! woot !

[11:28] <Kikuko> Great..Relief!..Deyko..ewww.. nasty.. got a number on it?

[11:30] <Kikuko> Hiyas stormy))

[11:30] Deyko cleans it as much as possible with the hankie .. then says .. "Who's going to carry it?"

[11:30] <weeds41> should we kiku?

[11:30] <stormy922> (hi, kiku, still in the dungeon?)

[11:30] <weeds41> let me have it ! i have got a piece of paper to wrap it in !

[11:30] <Kikuko> well..lets test first..Mr Weeds.. Deyko?..toss something through and ssee if it works?

[11:31] <weeds41> ok for the test first

[11:31] Deyko hands it over to Weeds carefully ..

[11:31] <Kikuko> yepper stormy..rofl.. coffees on though ..if you need a cuppa ..))

[11:31] weeds41 takes it

[11:31] Deyko kicks a piece of debris causally, and watches it flash before vanishing ..

[11:32] <weeds41> it works

[11:32] <Deyko> Mm.

[11:32] <weeds41> what do you think of it deyko ?

[11:32] Kikuko sees the bit of debris flash out of sight.. grins.. thinks fondly of a bath in her immediate future.. maybe*

[11:32] Deyko stares into the light warp .. then looks to them both. "I'm not sure. Let's just hope we have all of the pieces."

[11:32] stormy922 looks over at the bar and sees the coffee.  She pours herself a cup and then sits at the bar to enjoy the warm cup of energy.

[11:33] <weeds41> we don't know in which room we are though

[11:33] <Kikuko> Well.. I am game. this room has given me a fair case of claustrophobia..

[11:33] Kikuko hears a click.. looks around . shrugs.. ears playing tricks on her

[11:33] <weeds41> i would be glad to see the light too ; i feel like being a rat

[11:34] <Kikuko> Well.. this is true.. but lets kite out of here anyway.. maybe this warp will get us right out of here

[11:34] <weeds41> what 's the matter kiku ?

[11:34] Deyko feels his ear twitch on top of the cascading white strands .. then his eyes narrow.

[11:34] <Kikuko> Nothing Mr Weeds.. think my ears are just popping

[11:34] Deyko nods his head .. "Mm."

[11:35] <weeds41> so now , what shall we do ?

[11:36] <Kikuko> Leave?

[11:36] <Twyncles> Narrator> The party is ready to leave..but suddenly.. a rumbling is felt through the walls and floors.. the ceiling drops bits of dirt and small pebbles on them.. the door is suddenly rattled in its hinges.. it pops open. a huge ball is dooming to get into the room....

[11:36] <weeds41> sure ! good plan ...

[11:36] <weeds41> oh no !

[11:37] <Kikuko> Yikes..!

[11:37] Deyko draws his fist back to destroy the ball this time as his teeth grits .. but the bandana around his forehead flies off, fluttering onto the floor .. and the eye underneath widens .. taking in the ball .. he frowns .. then lowers his arm ..

[11:37] Kikuko leaps forward and pokes the ball with her staff..

[11:37] weeds41 helps her with his staff too

[11:37] Deyko kneels to pick up the white band .. and ties it around his head to block off the eye for now, and it vanishes.

[11:38] Kikuko sees the ball flick out a long bit of string at her and wrap around the staff jerking it out of her hand

[11:38] <Kikuko> egads..!

[11:38] <weeds41> ack !

[11:38] <Twyncles> Giant Ball> *giggles*

[11:38] Deyko watches with his arms folded .. keeping to the back with a causal stare of no worry.

[11:39] <weeds41> giggles ?????

[11:39] <Twyncles> Giant Ball> *bobs up and down..giggles some more..then emotes friendliness*

[11:39] <weeds41>  have you heard that ?

[11:40] <Kikuko> It giggles..is that a good thing ?..

[11:40] weeds41 feels the clue is inside the ball this time

[11:40] <weeds41> yes , good one

[11:40] Kikuko looks at Mr Weeds..

[11:40] stormy922 looks up from her cup of coffee and smiles to the new comer.  "Hello and welcome.  Come in and have a cup of coffee."

[11:40] Horizon3 [Horizon3@Horizon3] has left #MagicalAirs

[11:40] Deyko huffed and folded his arms .. looking to the side .. his calf length hair was locked in goo .. and he spoke from the back of the room where he hadn't budged since his eye looked to the ball. "It won't attack."

[11:40] <weeds41> i have my idea

[11:41] stormy922 frowns.  "Or maybe not."

[11:41] <Kikuko> hmnn.. go ahead Mr Weeds.. thing has me foxed..thats for sure

[11:41] <weeds41> mewwwwwwwwwwww!!

[11:41] <Twyncles> Giant Ball> ??

[11:41] Deyko felt his ears pop at the 'foxed' comment. 'Brow arched.

[11:42] <weeds41> miaowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww

[11:42] Kikuko snickers slightly.. saw Deyko get a little hawky on the fox comment.. probably didn't know it meant a good thing

[11:42] <weeds41> let me sing a little song !

[11:42] <weeds41> miaow, i am the only one who could do that

[11:43] <Twyncles> Giant Ball> "giggles?????" *emotes the picture of many many little penguin chicks and one baby dragon*

[11:43] <weeds41> miaow, i am as agile as a cat !

[11:43] <weeds41> miaow , what if i were a cat inside a rolling ball ??????!!!!!!

[11:44] weeds41 knocks the ball with his staff

[11:44] Kikuko sees the image in her mind ..wonders what it could possibly mean..the string holding her staff.. is still laying on the floor.. she picks it up. brushes it off.. its multicolored under the dirt..

[11:45] <Twyncles> Voice1> *sneezes* bleh.. Zats..the jig is up.. the Snickering Ball of

[11:45] <weeds41> giggle giggle ???

[11:45] <weeds41> could it be ????

[11:46] <Twyncles> Voice1< *sneeze sneeze* just sold us out..."

[11:46] <weeds41> oh my ? is that possible ?

[11:46] You are now known as whatcat

[11:47] <weeds41> come out !

[11:47] <whatcat> Weedses?????.. yep its me and Zatsit.. we are inside the Snickering Ball of String...

[11:47] <weeds41> you both

[11:47] <whatcat> uh huh..

[11:48] <weeds41> did you find the giggling carpet ?

[11:48] Deyko stands up with a calm expression.

[11:48] <whatcat> uh huh.. it has been down here . must have rolled through some portal up on the surface..last fall.. when it disappeared

[11:49] <weeds41> kiku , deyko , this is whatcat  and zatsit inside the ball of string

[11:49] <weeds41> can you get out of it now ?

[11:49] Deyko eyes with a sideways stare. "Hm.. I see."

[11:49] stormy922 drinks the last drop of her coffee and looks around.  She feels a bit lazy just sitting her doing nothing.  So she stands and makes her way to the stables.  Perhaps, she'll see where the portals can take her today. 

[11:49] whatcat turns to look at Zatsit inside the ball..."um.. that Deyko dude doesn't look like he has good intent toward blue cats.. remember what he did to our gold??...*whiskers bristle *

[11:50] <whatcat> um..not exactly.. weedses.. we have to port.. to do it..but we never know where we are going to wind up cause the ball is always turned round on us..

[11:51] Kikuko leans against the wall.. curiousity burning in her eyes..

[11:51] <weeds41> so could we help you ?

[11:51] <weeds41> can we unroll it ?

[11:52] stormy922 looks back at the inn silently promising to return, eager to hear about the expedition.

[11:52] stormy922 [stormy922@stormy922] has left #MagicalAirs

[11:52] <whatcat> okay.. listen. we have a plan. . we are going to port..and if you want to.. grab a string off the snickering ball.. it will take off after us.. and unravel itself if you hold onto it.. then you can get out of that room.. its.. room.. #4 by the way

[11:53] <weeds41> ok whattie

[11:53] <weeds41> room 4!

[11:53] <weeds41> i am holding the string

[11:53] whatcat grabs Zatsit by the paw.. "Okay weedses. we are going to port now!.. *whispers to Zats.. okay.. up to the city. maybe Deyko will forget about us .. heh.. I hope...

[11:54] You are now known as Twyncles

[11:54] Deyko whips his hand out .. and out of the blue a new trench coat appears .. he adorns it on his body and slowly walks towards the ball, but waits for Kikuko.

[11:54] <weeds41> oh my ! that living legend is gone

[11:54] <Twyncles> Narrator> The felons port and the ball leaves the door to chase after them.. the door is open..now to the corridor

[11:55] <weeds41> kiku , deyko , let's go !

[11:55] <Deyko> Aye.

[11:55] <Kikuko> wow..wait til Sakura hears about this.. look we can just go out the door.. the ball is gone.. now

[11:55] <weeds41> sakura ?

[11:56] Deyko tuck his hands in the coat pockets .. waiting patiently to pick up the rear as his eyelids shut. He looks disturbed about something, but keeps quiet.

[11:56] Kikuko steps out into the corridor..looks around.. dim flaring torches.. stone walls.. okay.. so far so good

[11:56] Deyko walks out behind them with slow footfalls, standing in the middle of the corridor.

[11:56] <Kikuko> oh..yes.. my friend Sakura Mr Weeds.. she loves to hear stories about Airs.. its all like a living fairy tale to her..<grins >

[11:57] <weeds41> you bet it is !

[11:57] <Kikuko> okay..well.. maybe this is it.. we must have all the clues now.. or the door wouldn't have unlocked for us too.. so maybe we should put them together.. see whats what

[11:57] weeds41 can see their long shadows  on the walls

[11:58] weeds41 watches kiku taking out the clues

[11:58] Kikuko takes out her notebook makes a notation ..then holds it out for Mr Weeds and Deyko to see

[11:59] <Kikuko> This is the the order of the clues as we found them in each room.. I think there is a pattern there don't you?

[11:59] Deyko opens his eyelids to watch now and look at the notebook.

[11:59] Deyko nods his head.

[12:00] <Twyncles> Narrator> The party sees the order of the clues and rooms.. Room 1 waffle clue #3

[12:00] <Twyncles> Room 3 waffle clue #4

[12:00] <Twyncles> Room 4 waffle clue #5

[12:00] <Twyncles> Room 5 waffle clue #2

[12:00] <Twyncles> Room 2

[12:01] <Kikuko> um.. looks to me like the order of the warps is.. starting in room 1..to 3...to 4 ..to 5..to 2.. and two is the room that had the stairs..and the fire..so we need to warp to get back in there

[12:02] <Kikuko> So?.. make sense to you guys?

[12:02] <weeds41> yes

[12:02] Deyko nods his head in agreement.

[12:02] <Kikuko> okay.. *looks around.. now to find room one..

[12:03] <weeds41> ((will have to leave in 25 minutes ; dinner at my brother 's in another city !))

[12:03] <Kikuko> ((okies..just about done now. . a few minutes to finish..rofl))

[12:04] <weeds41> remember the water we could hear through the wall ?

[12:04] Kikuko looks at Deyko.. "well..bet you have a great sense of direction..want to lead on?.."

[12:04] <Kikuko> Yes Mr Weeds..?

[12:04] Deyko arches an eyebrow. Looks from Kikuko to Weeds .. curious.

[12:04] <weeds41> as deyko and you have good ears you could find the direction getting closer to the noise

[12:06] <Kikuko> Okay.. sounds like a plan.. *stands still.. listens intently..points straight ahead.."That way.. then can hear it faintly"

[12:07] weeds41 is glad both can check the slightest noise

[12:07] Kikuko walks forward.. sees a turn to the south.. follows the corridor .. then makes another east ward turn ..looks around. sees a door.. a number One is engraved over the lintel..

[12:08] <Kikuko> heh!... Well.. there is room number one.. woot.. try the door Mr Weeds..we know we can get in anyway

[12:08] <weeds41> here it is

[12:08] Deyko follows suit in the rear, his eyelids shut but his ears flicker more often because of it. His bare feet walk on silently until arriving, and come to a pause.

[12:08] weeds41 opens the door

[12:08] Deyko opens one of his eyelids a bit to peek at the number one ..

[12:09] Kikuko smiles and walks into the room.. looks around cautiously but no baby troll.. the warp flickers in the corner..

[12:09] <weeds41> the baby must be asleep !!

[12:10] Deyko steps inside behind them opening both eyelids halfway now. Focusing on the flickering warp in the quiet room.

[12:10] weeds41 looks at his friends

[12:11] <weeds41> we will soon know if we were right !

[12:11] <Kikuko> okay.. *takes out the waffles.. looks at the one they found in Room One.. * Lets see if we can key the warps now with the waffle bits to go through the sequence

[12:12] <Twyncles> Narrator> Using the waffle clues to key the warps .. the party is switched back and forth through the rooms until finally deposited in the last room .. with the stairs

[12:12] weeds41 takes out the sticky one

[12:12] Kikuko looks rather dizzily around.. "are we here yet?"

[12:12] Deyko stands there ... in the room ... no fire .. he looked over to the stairs ..

[12:12] Deyko nods to Kikuko. "Yes.."

[12:13] <weeds41> where do they lead to ?

[12:13] Kikuko opens her eyes fully ..."oh.. we are.. ."

[12:13] Deyko says aloud. "Hopefully upstairs to the city."

[12:13] <weeds41> hope so !

[12:13] <Kikuko> To a hot bath?.. <grins at her companions>

[12:13] <weeds41> and light !

[12:14] <Kikuko> Well..Deyko. want to do the honors?..you fought the good fight with them last time.. this round should be yours too..<laughs>

[12:14] <weeds41> let's follow you deyko !

[12:15] Deyko slowly walked up the stairs keeping himself aware for any traps. He made careful steps up the stairs, towards the entrance with bare feet.

[12:15] weeds41 feels excited to discover what is next

[12:15] Kikuko shuffles her shoulders. settles her pack and takes a firm hold of her staff..looks to Deyko and weeds with a bright and hopeful smile..

[12:15] Deyko pauses .. his eyes narrow for a moment ... then open ... the city ...

[12:15] <Kikuko> oh.. Mr Weeds... look . the stairs are stairs.. lets gooooooo!..WOOT!

[12:15] <weeds41> wow!!!

[12:15] Deyko walks slowly forward ... it was obviously an ancient civilization ...

[12:16] Kikuko let weeds go first and galloped up behind him

[12:16] <weeds41> a marvellous golden light fills their eyes

[12:16] <weeds41> it is so warm and ...

[12:16] weeds41 is amazed at the sight

[12:17] <Twyncles> whatcat> Um..Zats..think we had better present ourselves.. have feeling am in sooo much trouble now..wait til Twy finds out what we have been up to ...

[12:17] You are now known as whatcat

[12:17] weeds41 sees palm trees and an old city in the distance

[12:18] <whatcat> Hey Hey!!!! Welcome you guys.. nice place heh?..*whiskers curl up in a feline smile *

[12:18] Deyko says aloud. "Made it. You two were impressive."

[12:18] Deyko looks to Whatcat and his fox ears twitch.

[12:18] weeds41 turns to whatcat

[12:18] Kikuko looks around her jaw dropped.. after the long dank journey through the dungeon this was a true oasis

[12:18] <weeds41> there you are !

[12:19] whatcat looks at Deyko and hides behind the siameser Zatsit..waves to weedses...

[12:19] <weeds41> what have you both been up to ?

[12:19] <weeds41> come her !

[12:19] Deyko says in a low voice .. "..You two .. have a lot of explaining to do.."

[12:19] <weeds41> here

[12:19] Deyko then fainted .. falling in a heap of exhaustion.

[12:19] <whatcat> uh huh.. well.. just ..um.. hanging around.. found this place by accident.. through a pickle barrel portal.. heh..

[12:19] <weeds41> let's sit hearing your tale

[12:20] weeds41 sits down on a rock

[12:20] Kikuko yelps and runs over to Deyko.."Ack! Deyko????..."

[12:20] <weeds41> what is the matter with him ?

[12:20] <weeds41> he looks pale

[12:20] weeds41 rushes to deyko

[12:21] whatcat looks a  little bit ashamed of herself.. even for her she and Zats had gone a bit too far. trying to scare weedses...

[12:21] <weeds41> Kiku ! your medicine quick !

[12:21] <Kikuko> I..don't know.. yes.. of course good idea Mr Weeds

[12:21] weeds41 kneels down holding deyko's head

[12:21] Kikuko fumbles in panic through her pack.. finds the clay bottle of potion that had served them so well so far...

[12:21] Deyko looks as if the lack of light and magic being cut off had weakened him greatly and his exhausted frame rested in a heavy slump

[12:22] <Kikuko> Here Mr Weeds.. pour it all into him if he will take it

[12:22] <weeds41> he looks worn out

[12:22] <weeds41> ok

[12:22] whatcat pad foots over to Deyko.. ..shifts to semi human.. kneels down.. looks seriously at him..

[12:22] weeds41 helps deyko drink the medicine gems gave kiku

[12:23] <whatcat> he is .. he is a light being.. upper air.. needs to get up there pronto.. um.. *blushes*.. the door is unlocked now and all the traps on the tower stairs are defused too..

[12:23] <weeds41> his cheeks are so pale ...but the medicine and the sun will help him get over it

[12:24] Deyko lips were semi parted .. the drink itself didn't heal him but the magic origin of it was what was replenishing him .. enough to restore him out of any dire harm .. but the lacking of light and heat was wearing him downso much that even the magic effects weren't enough by yet

[12:25] <whatcat> Zatsit>shifts to his semi human form.. turquoise eyes gleam from the tattoo of his mask.. "Well.. can we shift them then .. whatties?..Use our pickle barrel portal?..

[12:26] <weeds41> i think we will come back herethrough your protal next time ; we need a bit of rest right now ; but the adventure will go on !

[12:26] Kikuko looks hopeful.. "Works for me.. then.. what say you Mr Weeds.. now we have all the puzzles.. and the mysteries..*looks a  little keenly at the two feline shifters* we can come back safely and explore this wonderful place..

[12:27] <whatcat> Okies.. and tell Deyko I did this cause I likes him..<snickers.. hopes it gets her out of trouble.. a good deal >

[12:27] <weeds41> witty cat !

[12:27] Deyko became a full fox with nine lovely tails sprouted out behind him .. and a beautiful silver and white hued mane ..

[12:28] <weeds41> let's go then

[12:28] <weeds41> ok kuko ?

[12:28] whatcat grins .. her feline semi human features.. a little sly.. she  waves her hand and a portal opens before them..."There you go.. its usually hidden but the jig is up now I guess..

[12:28] <Kikuko> Yes Mr Weeds?

[12:29] <weeds41> let's hold hands and go

[12:29] <Kikuko> yes.. at once.. a bath. my kingdom I don't have for hot soapy water..lol

[12:29] <weeds41> we will get rid of all the nasty smells and smell like roses !

[12:30] whatcat narrows her eyes.."oooo.. nice look there kitsune..you are celestial aren't you. "

[12:30] Kikuko takes Mr Weeds hand.. holds out the other one to Deyko.."We are so gone from this place..*giggles*"

[12:30] Deyko laid there with the coat of silver sparkling with a stunning aura of light .. the tails were seperated .. and the fox was still asleep ..

[12:31] <weeds41> "allons enfants d'Airs le jour de gloire est arrivi !"

[12:32] whatcat grins.. waves her hand.. levitates the sleeping kitsune between weeds and Kikuko.. and sends them through the portal

[12:32] <weeds41> deyko will have to be teleported !

[12:33] <weeds41> ((he is our sleeping fox prince ))

[12:33] Kikuko nods.. "Grab hold of one side of him Mr Weeds.. we can just float him through with us..

[12:33] <Deyko> (( lol, aww ))

[12:33] <weeds41> ok

[12:33] You are now known as Twyncles

[12:33] weeds41 can hear air whistling in his ears

[12:34] <weeds41> whiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiizzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

[12:34] Twyncles hears a rattleing from the kitchen.. jumps up.. goes to the doorway.. the pickle barrel is just jumping up and  down.. her eyes widen in astonishment as weeds.. Deyko in full kitsune form.. and sleeping. and Kikuko pop out of the top ...

[12:35] <weeds41> rofl

[12:35] <weeds41> hello twyncles ! we are back

[12:35] <Twyncles> ack!!!!!

[12:36] Deyko feels beams of sunlight strike him .. projected from the window .. the light itself alone makes him flinch .. once .. twice ..

[12:36] <Twyncles> Welcome back you three.. welcome back. was beginning to get just a little worried .. but you look fine.. kind of smelly though.. *giggles*

[12:36] <weeds41> new lodging ; low rent and free pickle

[12:36] Deyko hopped up, the fox moving gracefully with a smoth finesse as it looks around the room, all nine fluffy tails swaying about ..

[12:36] Deyko sniffs .. getting an idea of where he is ... the kitsune relaxed ..

[12:37] Deyko waits for a while .. and then spins .. appearing in normal form once more .. with the fox ears a top of his head now that he had enough light stored within to transform.

[12:37] weeds41 looks at his friends and grins

[12:37] <weeds41> we did it !

[12:37] Kikuko staggers a bit as her feet hit the floor.. "w00ters.. yes.. hello Twyncles. it was great.. the city is gorgeous. is there any hot water?..*laughs and looks around.. smells food.. goes to the stove.. miso soup.. yes!*

[12:38] <weeds41> we will all have a hot bath and change clothes !

[12:38] <Twyncles> I see that. but .. um.. however did you come back by the pickle barrel.. thought you would be coming from the tower

[12:38] Deyko tucks his hands in trench coat pockets, walking outside in the front of the inn. He removes the trench coat, laying it down on the grass .. and begans to move his hands .. in the middle of the sky it begins to rain hot water over the lake .. he moves off towards the lake now ..

[12:38] <Twyncles> Never mind. first things first. then the tale..<smiles happily at the adventureres>

[12:38] <weeds41> well , you just need to ask whattie and zatsit ...they will tell you

[12:39] <Twyncles> hmmnn.. why am I not surprised to hear those two names.. *winks at weeds...*

[12:39] Deyko made his coat appear next to him when he arrives .. and falls into the lake .. the water hot from the heated droplets from the sky ..

[12:39] weeds41 winks back

[12:39] <weeds41> was sure they would be there !

[12:40] Deyko leans back letting the water soothe him .. he grinned .. a small fang showing .. "Cats.." He whispered slyly .. the mischief of the fox rising up in him .. he used the lake like a hot spring

[12:40] Kikuko hugs Mr Weeds..grabs a roll and some fruit from the table.."I am for a bath. I will see you later .. oh Mr Weeds..it was a splendid adventure .. wasn't it..?"

[12:41] <weeds41> it was a splendid one kiku

[12:41] <weeds41> ((and woot woot i am on holidays from now on ! ))

[12:41] Deyko dips himself into the water ... then rises out of it. Drenched .. his calf length hair was down to his ankles now .. and he walked back to the Inn ..

[12:42] <weeds41> i must go now to the yurt to tell my friends about it

[12:42] <Kikuko> ((wooters . for holidays.. lol))

[12:42] Deyko opened the door with his palm .. he held his hand out and a towel warped into his palm ..

[12:42] <Deyko> (( lol ))

[12:42] <weeds41> and have a long long bath

[12:42] <Kikuko> Alright Mr Weedses.. me too.. <giggles>

[12:42] Deyko looks to Weeds .. pats his shoulder ..

[12:42] <weeds41> lol

[12:42] <weeds41> see you later ! going to town ! ))

[12:43] Deyko nods his head .. and walks to the bar .. taking a seat ..

[12:43] Kikuko nods happily.. and runs out through the common room taking the stairs two at a time. the door closes above..

[12:43] <Deyko> (( W00T, GO TO TOWN, PAINT THE TOWN YELLOW! ))

[12:43] Kikuko [Kikuko@Kikuko] has left #MagicalAirs

[12:43] <Deyko> (( .. I don't like a red town. - Sniffz - ))

[12:43] <weeds41> bisous (sticky ones sorry for that ))and huggles

[12:43] <Deyko> (( lol ))

[12:44] Twyncles follows everyone to the common room.. laughing happily (bisous et huggles weedses. thank you good game..lol))
