Log:New Blood Hawaii Vacation I

Hawaii Trip Plot Scene 1

Participants: New Blood

CB International Skyport

Caleb arrives wherever it is we're all arriving, with Scott sitting on his shoulders muttering something involved and complicated about horses.

Alex arrives with Caleb and Philippa. Phil complains to Alex, "Exactly how long do you plan on wearing that ridiculous shirt, Alex?"

Caleb and Alex are wearing perhaps _the_ most garish "Hawaiian" shirts you've ever seen. Scott is wearing a smaller version of same.

Caleb notices Xing-Liu and takes her aside briefly...

Jennifer and Jessica are wearing shirts just as loud and garish as Alex and Caleb, in their cases with colorful scarves as well.

[To Xing-Liu] Caleb says, "Hey... two things. First, I gotcha something... second, I was wonderin' if you'd mind, um, patchin' me up again?"

Stephie says, "I didn't know loud shirts were obligatory....."

The Skyport is bustling today, its Spring Break! There are families everywhere, but there is a welcome sign for the "Winters Party." And what looks like an escort for the group.

Alex looks to Stephie. "Cale has extras, I think."

Caleb opens his shirt a bit to reveal a rather large bandage. Caleb has a stack of garish hawaiian shirts. None quite as garish as alex's, but close. He hands them out.

Xing-Liu has taken to wearing some choice summer wear lately, so she's already dressed for Hawaii. She nods to Caleb, and focuses on healing him. In the time she's had to rest from her massive healing days, she's a lot less weary.

Izzy is feeling considerably out of places, wearing a pair of cargo shorts and a polo shirt, both of bland, solid colors.

Caleb seems relieved.

Stephie says, "Oh, come on..... Even I couldn't look good in this!"

Alex is dressed for the weather in the aforementioned shirt, shorts, sandals. Instead of his typical glasses, he's got prescription sunglasses, in the style of the Blues Brothers, whoever /they/ are.

Ivy is wearing sandles and a light green flowery sarong.

Caleb grins. "You can take it off later, Steph..."Jace seems to be joined with Izzy, wearing a pair of over-sized jeans stuffed to the brim with eletronic items, and a black t-shirt that read, "Take me anywhere but here". He notices everyone elses cloths and smirks, at Stephie comment. "this is going to be a really wierd trip"

Caleb chuckles. "Yeah. Which is odd, because our home life is so damned normal."

Regent has arrived with a smile wearing a pair of surfer shorts and a quick silver shirt, his smile is replaced with a look like someone shot him.."you guys are going to change right?"

Izzy seems to twitch a bot at the idea of Stephie taking it off.

Philippa eyes Alex's shirt. "What an eyesore," she sighs. o O ( First chance I get, that shirt is going MIA. )

Caleb chuckles at Matt... he'd been hoping for that reaction.

Stephie puts the shirt on over her current red T-shirt, as, well. a show of team spirit.

Ivy icks. "You are kidding me, right?"

[To Regent] Stephie says, "It's like us all wearing shirts saying, "I'm with Stupid," but with less reading."

Xing-Liu looks confused toward Matt, glancing down at the only clothing she'd brought. No bags with her.

It looks like everyone is here so the guide says, "Alright Kids, lets get you on the plane. The Winters party has been upgraded to first class, so its time to board. Your luggage has been pre-boarded so if everyone will follow me?"

Alex follows the guide.

Stephie says, "Upgraded? Wow."

Stephie follows.

Izzy says, "Wow. First class?"

Regent nods at Stephie...with an audible groan.."Give me one Cale.." he mumbles something about how he's going to be ragged to death when he gets home wearing one of these.

Jessica and Jennifer grin. "First class. Cool."

Jace follows suit, shaking his head, and mutters, "Damn winter's kids get everything"+

Caleb hands Matt a shirt.

Alex grins. "We're going to turn some heads in first class, methinks."

Regent grins at Jace, "Hey, we're benefiting from it. I think its cool."

Hey, if it's good enough for Stephie, it's good enough for him. She's the cool one, after all. Izzy follows suit.

Alex teases, "Comon, Phil... everybody's doing it..."

Ivy sees Matt get a shirt and so she reluctantly will wear one as well.

Regent puts the gaudy shirt on and just shakes his head hovering forward after the guide,

Stephie, of course, mostly put on the shirt because she figured it might be good for her not to look as hot as usual in a crowd.

Caleb considers asking Jace how much he'd take in trade for his mom, but lets it go.

IDs are checked and they are quickly boarded onto first class, the seats are huge, fully moveable, you could lie down in one and it wouldn't bother another passenger, drinks are offered and full styled food and snacks are offered upon arrival. The stewards are Buff and good looking, the Stewardess, Hot and slim. Its the good life, the other side most people never get to experience.

Xing-Liu walks beside Ivy, though ID is a bit troublesome for her, and she looks a little helpelessly toward Caleb.

Jennifer asks the guide, "How come the upgrade? I'd love to know how to get an upgrade next time I fly."

Caleb, er, does whatever it is he intended to do when he arranged this trip for XL in the first place...

As Jace gets to the boarding area he is stopped momentarily, but his paperwork is checked and is allowed to join the rest.

Ivy grabs Xing-Liu's hand. "Sit with me, Ok?"

Jace frowns a bit and nods, then quickly catches up to the group and trying not to stick out

Regent sighs and is lifted by 2 of the Stewards to one of the large chairs, his chair is then pushed out of the way and into the cargo hold.

Stephie tries out the reclining seat, even though she'll have to put it upright again before takeoff.

Prearranged things are helpful, and Xing-Liu gets aboard just fine. She sits with Ivy, smiling.

The Guide smiles at the pretty girl, "Speak to your friends, I believe it was their uncle who arranged for it."

Ivy whispers to Xing-Liu, "Aren't you excited? This is going to be so fun! Look at the stewards! They are cuties."

Caleb grins to Alex. "Yeah, Uncle Chris is quite a guy, huh?"

Xing-Liu looks at both Steward and Stewardess among the folk tending to the group, and looks back at Ivy with a sheepish, completely ignorant expression, a little apologetic for what she fails to see.

Jace finds a seat a bit away from the crazy shirted people, and ends up sitting next to Izzy, he nods to him and takes a seat.

Izzy jockeys to try to get to sit next to Stephie without just VAULTING into the seat next to her.

Alex nods back to Cale, with a knowing wink.

The guide stands at the front of the 1st Class section. "Your trip has been prepaid, and everything taken care of, I believe you have a guide for the rest of your time in Hawaii, there will be one day that is unplanned so ask your friend," he points at Regent, "what there is to do, and we'll get the plans arranged. Have a great Spring Break Kids!" he smiles broadly handing out tickets and other things for them as well as a pda download that will help with the "Pidgin" English used in Hawaii if you can't seem to understand it.

Izzy says, "Everything?" Izzy says, "Meals too?"

Caleb uploads the download, feeling somewhat foolish about not having done that himself.

Stephie says, "Didn't know this trip was quite so organised!"

Alex settles into his seat, sitting next to Philippa. "...With any luck, I can use teh miles from this trip and the recent one to Massachusetts this summer, when I'm visiting schools."

The Guide nods to Izzy, "Yes, just save your reciepts, you'll be reimbursed, or if you lose it don't worry. It's covered."

Regent looks decidedly unhappy that he had to be carried in front of Ivy. He seems to sit alone near one of the windows.

Izzy thinks. o O (Wow! Now all I have to do is not get CAUGHT eatting so much...)

Caleb says, "'xcept you have to get your own girls, Iz."

There are 4 attendants for the 9 people..talk about excess. They go to each of you offering drinks and food.

Stephie says to Caleb and Alex, "I'll have to meet your uncle some day..."

Izzy smirks at Caleb. "Well, that's ok. I was pretty sure YOU couldn't arrange THAT."

Alex grins to Stephie. "You'd like Chris. He's just like having another brother."

Caleb looks Izzy over like he would a new bike and finally nods. "Yeah. Some things, even I can't manage."

Ivy glances over to Matt seeing him seeming bummed. She sighs a little and tries to distract herself by showing Xing-Liu those inflight magazines etc.

Xing-Liu seems a little puzzled again, attention on Matt then Ivy. Magazines are examined for a short time at least.

The attendants give out drinks, and unlike coach you are able to keep the food and drink upon take off and landing, the attendants themselves take their seat as the announcement that the plane is about to take flight is made.

Alex leans over and explains to Scott the pre-flight checklist across the aisle.

The Massive hover jets start up and the plane gently lifts off and suddenly the g-force of take off is felt its a good thing the seats are comfortable because the g-forces are not.

Stephie puts her seat upright, regretfully.

Jace grits his teeth and his chair arms tightly as they take off, the stress obviously getting to him

Regent just relaxes into his seat, he's been on tons of flights, this is no big deal.

Jennifer thinks. o O (Wish I'd spotted Matt was on his own. I'd have sat next to him.)

A few minutes into the flight the Attendants are again on the move, they are offering holovids of all kinds and tastes, even the deviant that would appease Caleb. They walk around taking food orders, it seems ok to walk around if you want.

Jessica moves seats to sit beside Matt. "You okay?"

Ivy asks Xing-Liu, "Is there anything you want? Food? Drink?"

Regent shrugs.."Yeah, I'm cool I guess."

Izzy blinks as he hears Caleb and Ivy talking about Jace over the New Blood communicator.

The G-forces subside and the ride is very comfortable.

Yutaka looks at Ivy then at Caleb..somewhat a surprised look on his face. o O (What the hell?)

Stephie doesn't even register it, having figured out their SIDs ages back.

Jace lets go of his chairs and untensely slowly, looking about to see if anyone saw him and if not, he wipes the sweat from his forhead and puts his PDA on shuffle, lays back and tries to relax.

The food comes out and the filet mignon is amazing, the Chilean Sea Bass succulent, The Free Range Chicken juicy and fragrant of rosemary. Everything is excellent.

Jessica asks Matt very gently, "Something wrong?" when she mistakes his look towards Ivy and Caleb, knowing Matt and Ivy are kind of an item.

Regent nods.."Its just..I hate this getting in the way." he hits his leg hard, but he can't feel it. There will probably be a bruise there tomorrow.

Izzys mouth waters as he eats, trying to keep himself to normal portions and he realizes it was PROBABLY A mistake to try to sit next to Stephie. The poor girl probably thinks he's a bigger horndog than he actually is.

There is enough food to make even Izzy full..at least for 10 minutes.

Stephie says, "I don't think I can eat all this..."

Jessica leans closer to whisper into Matt's ear, "At least you're human. That's a good place to start. And medical science is advancing every day."

Regent sits back so the stewardess can lean over and serve he and Jess.

Jace turns a bit to watch Izzy. o O (Wow...thats really gross)

Caleb and Scott are involved in a somewhat uninterpretable game involving a can of soda and several straws.

Jessica's breath and voice so close to his ear sends a shiver down his back..and not a bad one, he gulps a little and clears his throat .."What's that mean Jess?" he says softly back to her but when he turns his head to speak he doesn't realize she's still so close and his lips brush hers "Uh..sorry..sheesh." he stammers blushing.

Caleb notices Matt making his move on Jess and looks over his shoulder at Jen, idly curious about her reaction.

Jace turns about to see what the others are doing and sees Jess whispers in matts ear, he seems to get a little upset.

Xing-Liu finds it hard to simply sit still during the whole flight, moving to stand and watching the reactions of the attendants.

Jace looks back up at the attendant at a loss for words..."ahh, a pillow will be fine thanks.."

Stephie eats her food, largely oblivious to the goings-on.

Philippa explains to Alex about her trip to Greece, "... And we were stuck there for hours, because the boat wouldn't start. And it was starting to get dark..."

One of the handsome male attendants smiles at Xing-Liu, "Miss is there anything I can get for you?"

Izzy finally excuses himeslf and makes his way to the bathroom, where he sits for the longest time. He tries not to cry, but he can't help it. He's SO hungry, but he can't eat. It'd blow everything. He knew it was a mistake to come, but he wanted so much for his mother to have some time to herself, not worrying about him...

The pretty attendant winks and say, "Of course Mr. Laire." she bings him a pillow shortly.

Jessica smiles, but leans back a little so there's more distance between Matt and her. "Maybe I'll tell you someday. But what I can tell you right now is you will only find your legs getting in the way if you let them. But you have a choice. Unlike, say, Bubba, who doesn't have a choice about being a dumb oaf."

Xing-Liu offers a simple smile, bringing her hands together in a slight bow as she declines the offer, motioning then to her legs and then along the aisle.

The male attendant nods, "Very good Miss, if there is anything I can assist you with, please just let me know."

Philippa watches Izzy head to the bathroom. o O ( I think I know bulemia when I see it. )

Regent nods.."You're right of course, there are others that have said that, but when I have to have some guy lift me up so I can ride a plane..its..it just throws it in my face.

Caleb makes sure Scott is OK for a minute and steps over to join XL in the aisle. "Hey, like I said before, I got somethin' for you... hope you like it." He hands her a small electronic gadget with several buttons on it and an earbud, and motions for her to put the earbud in her ear.

Jessica says, "Have you ever heard of a Brit named Douglas Barder?"

Stephie sets aside what's left of her food - on Izzys tray, since he's not there - and glances through the in-flight magazine.

Regent shakes his head.

The walk along the aisle isn't nearly as thrilling as being allowed to dash and leap, but it's far better for Xing-Liu than sitting down and not going anywhere for hours on end. She listens at the bathroom door, looking worried.

Philippa gets up and sits down in Izzy's vacated seat. "Hey! So this spa I've picked out should be totally amazing..."

Jace grumbles a bit after taking the pillow and jacks up the volume on his head set, staring at the ceiling. o O (This is going to be a long 2 hours)

Philippa says that to Stephie.

Stephie says, "Oh, yeah?"

The 1st hour passes hormonally.

Scotty unstraps his seatbelt and sits in Phil's seat next to Alex. "Can we play balloon-head again?" he whispers loudly.

The Pilot states that they are now passing over the Pacific Ocean and that they should reach Honolulu International Skyport in one hour or less.

Jessica says, "He was a fighter aircraft pilot in the last of the great wars. The best pilot in his country's air force. A genuine hero. He had no legs at all. He had lost them in a flying accident years before."

Regent blinks.."Wow..that's pretty amazing..."

The pretty attendant leans over Jace putting her bodice near his face, taking his tray from him, trying not to disturb him.

Izzy eats the food he'd managed to bring from home, and what he'd been able to snatch off the trays. He'd learned long ago to line his pockets with plastic wrap to avoid unisghtly stains. Thank God for cargo shorts with parachute pockets! He washes up, to try to make sure nobody can tell he's been eatting or crying either one. He brushes, flosses (he carries his dental hygene products EVERYWHERE) and pops in a breth mint and starts to make his way back out.

The other attendant knocks softly on the lavatory door.."Sir, is everything ok?"

Philippa describes the spa with the mud skin treatments, massage, and sauna, how highly recommended it came, and which celebrities have been spotted there. She continues the the discussion for the benefit of the the other people shes booked for it, the twins, Ivy, Stephie, and even Xing-Liu.

Jace smirks to himself a bit, and thanks the attendant

Alex says, "But Scott... you know that balloon-head is house-game. Maybe when we get to the hotel."

The attendant smiles winsomely and says, "you're very welcome Mr. Laire."

Stephie says, "Wow - I've never been anywhere like that...."

Scott looks briefly embarassed. "Plane, not house. Plane, not house. Right. Plane, not house."

Phil says, "One day in paradise. You'll feel like a new person afterwards, ready to take on the world."

Izzy looks... surprised that his seat is taken, and starts to get mad, but then realizes it's probably for the best and just finds an empty seatt to himeslf.

Caleb comes back down the aisle, putting his gadget back in his pockets, looking somewhat dejected. He He crouches down next to his brothers to distract Scotty.

Regent sighs.."You're right of course Jess.."

Stephie smiles. "I don't know - I've already had the experience of feeling like a new person once."

The other pretty attendant that was knocking on the door asks if everything is alright to Izzy.

The pilot says that they will reach their destination in 15 minutes.

Phil looks up as Izzy approaches. "Sorry... just catching up on girl-talk." She flashes a brief grin, and seems oblivious to his despair. o O ( Do I smell breath mint? He is _so_ purging. )

Stephie's spare food taunts Izzy, though.

Izzy says, "Hrm? Oh, yeah. I'm fine, thanks."

Caleb sits down next to the new kid. "Hey... so what was your name again?"

Jessica smiles. "I'm really looking forward to the conducted tour you kind of promised me. I brought my scuba gear. It's in the hold."

The Attendant nods and goes to Stephie and Phillipa clearing their food away, "Ladies may I assist you with anything else? Perhaps Aaron could give you a short massage?" she points over at one of the good looking attendants.

Izzy says, "Oh, hi. I'm Izzy. I think I'm in your English class..."

Regent smiles, "Absolutely..I've got this place that people don't really go cause of the sharks, but the sharks have always been pretty harmless, they don't really like human flesh is what I've heard."

Caleb shrugs. "Wouldn't know... ain't hardly been there in weeks. Caleb... Caleb Winters. How'd you get hooked up with this gang of misfits?"

Stephie looks over at Aaron and seems to be seriously considering it, but in the end shakes her head. "No, thank you."

Izzy steals a longing, mournful look at the food being taken away, knowing it was going to be thrown out...

The Lady Attendants go to the males in the room and offer a neck and shoulder massage..Starting with the Winter brothers.

Philippa declines as well. She leans over to whisper to Stephie.

The same deal happens with the Male attendants to the Women.

They start with Philippa.

Ivy has been sleeping this whole time. Zzz.

Caleb accepts the massage and makes some vague attempt to make chitchat with Izzy, but is clearly distracted.

Izzy says, "Oh, I don't really know anybody here. I just wanted to get away for spring break, ya know?"

The second Attendant asks Alex if he would like one.

Jessica grins. "Sharks don't like human flesh? You mean I've had that wrong all these years? I'll have to think up another name to call the lawyers at Starguard."

Alex politely declines.

Regent smiles.."Well..human sharks like human flesh..probably at least."

Jace drifts to sleep lost in his music

Caleb nods. "Oh! Sorry... bunch of us came together... mm... and, um, I thought... mm... you were... just a_little_lower... oh, that's good... um... what were you sayin' Iz?"

The attendant moves on to Izzy.

Stephie whispers back.

The second male Attendant goes to Ivy asking her if she'd like a massage (if she's woken up)

Xing-Liu makes her way back to her seat, looking like she enjoyed the ... walk. It wasn't very much of a walk, but superior to being seated all the time.

Izzy manages to actually smile and chuckles a little. "I'll tell ya later."

Getting no response from the Ladies the 1st Male attendant goes to Rachel and asks if she'd like one.

Ivy is still sleepy.. "uh.. oh not now.. talos.."

Ivy goes back to sleep.

Caleb snorts.

The Male attendant moves on to Jennifer. The female moves on to Jace..."Sir, would you like a neck and shoulder massage?"

Alex pulls out the insert that describes the plane, and explains it to Scott.

Jace shakes awake a bit, and looks up at her, "huh?"

Regent blinks, hearing Ivy's words..his mood darkens.

Jennifer stands and head back to the lavatory. She'll do some isometrics inside to loosen up. Sitting aound isn't natural for her and Jess.

The attendant asks Jace again, "May I offer you a massage Mr. Laire?""

Jace actually laughs a bit, "Knock yourself out, man this first class thing is amazing"

The Male attendant does not seem taken aback by this, and he moves on to Xing, "Miss, would you care for a massage before we land?"

The female (1) finishes with Caleb and asks him, "Do you think your brother would enjoy a massage Mr. Winters?"

Getting the word slightly wrong, Xing-Liu motions to her ear, nodding and looking expectantly while obviously listening closely.

The Second Female begins to massage Jace's neck and shoulders with expert care.

Izzy thinks. o O (Jeez Louise! What am I? Chopped liver?!?)

Caleb blinks a second, confused, then works out that she means Scotty. He thinks about it for a while, but Scotty seems happily engaged in some world of his own and he shrugs. "No... I think he's OK."

Izzy thinks. o O (Mmmmmmm, Chopped liver!)

Stephie grins, whispering.

The Male Attendant shakes his head with a smile, "No Miss, a massage," he places a gentle hand on her shoulder and kneeds a little to show her what he meant.

The Attendant nods and moves on to Izz, "Sir did you say you didn't want one?"

Philippa giggles softly as she talks quietly to Stephie.

The Male attendant (2) goes to Jess, "Miss would you care for an inflight massage?"

Izzy says, "Me? Oh, yeah. Sure. That'd be... great. And do you think I could get some more of those peanuts?"

Jessica shakes her head and politely declines. "No thank you."

Intrigued by the prospect, Xing-Liu seems to agree, looking then around and waiting for instruction.

The Female attendant with Izzy nods, "Of course, would you like something more substancial? we have all kinds of refreshments."

The Male attendant (1) Begins to massage Xing-liu's neck and shoulders. His touch gentle and professional.

The Male Attendant (2) nods to Jessica, "Very good Ma'am enjoy the rest of your flight. Is there anything I can get for you?"

And Xing-Liu sends her chi into the attendant while he works, making it a pleasant affair for him.

Jessica says, "No thanks."

Izzy lloks up, intruiged. "Yeah? Whatcha got"?

The Female attendant brings a platter of cheeses and meats with flat bread for Izzy, Perhaps this would suit you better?" she then begins to massage Izzy's neck and shoulders.

The male attendant working on Fist smiles as he enjoys the work he is doing on her. He says to her, "That is simply amazing, you are an energy worker then?"

Jace ponders for a bit, looking around everyone enjoying themselves. o O (Do we have to get off the plane?)

Caleb tries to snatch a slice of prosciutto off of Izzy's platter.

The Male Attendants anounces that the flight will be over in about 10 minutes, the plane has to wait for its spot to land.

Izzy moans and grians happily as he eats, which luckily is coinciding with the massage, so is not NEARLY as obvious as it might be otherwise.

Ivy blinks awake since there is conversation of one person next to her. "hmm? " She smiles at fist and yawns and stretches.

After a few minutes The attendants apologize for having to stop their massages and take thier seats the plane has been decellarating for a while now and the Pilot announces, "We will be landing in the next few minutes, please return to your seats."

Regent shrugs he didn't even get a massage...great.

Ivy looks around to see how everyone is doing.

Caleb returns to his seat and nudges Scotty back to his.

Xing-Liu offers a smile toward the attendant, letting her hands glow gently for a few moments more.

One of the Attendant's says outloud, "you needn't return to your original seats, as long as you are seated.."

Philippa winks to Stephie as she continues her conversation.

Caleb thinks. o O (Well then, you shouldn't have SAID...)

Ivy asks, "Do we need our safety belts on?"

Stephie says, "Only if you prefer your internal organs to be internal."

The plane comes to a mid air stop. The attendant says, "No Ma'am, The seats in this section are safe enough to land without saftey belts, thank you for asking." The hover jets roar into action as the plane is lowered gently to the ground and all that is felt is a soft 'bump'.

Ivy tosses a peanut at Stephie. "See?"

Stephie says, "I stand corrected."

Caleb says, "You should sit, then..."

Ivy tosses a peanut at Matt.

Stephie says, "Good point."

The front door opens up and the occupant's are allowed out.

Caleb grins

Stephie nods thoughtfully (if dubiously) to Phil.

Ivy tells Matt and Xing-Liu, "Boy that was a good sleep. I had the weirdest dream."

Regent says in a droll tone..'you don't say Ivy..."

It takes little time for Xing-Liu to leave the plane, a bit abruptly.

Scott saddles up on Cale's shoulders again and starts reciting the names of breeds of horses. He interrupts himself to turn to Ivy and say "Taltos!" several times before going back to reciting horse breed names, of which he knows an impressive number.

Ivy nods. "Yeah, You know that stuntman talos? He was asking if I wanted a massage."

Jace stands up and exits the plane silently, waiting for the others to exit as well A hover ramp waits outside the door, its like an elevator but on hover technology. There is a man in a driver's suit waiting on the hover ramp.

Ivy nods to Scott. "Wow.. you are psychic or something."

Ivy smooths down her sarong and gets ready to exit.

Caleb comments to Ivy "You were mumbling in your sleep."

Regent watches Ivy's back as she starts to exit.

Xing-Liu is so excited about moving that she foregoes the hover thing and uses her own ability to get to ground level, offering a grateful smile toward the hover attendant.

The Winters horse and rider head out of the plane.

Ivy blinks. "Oh.. really?" She blushes.

Izzy sighs a little as he deboards. He's not sure if he should be relieved, or disappointed. He was just starting to get to like it there.

Jessica says, "Offers a hand to Matt, and if he accepts lifts him back into the hoverchair when its brought so he doesn't have to be moved by the stewards."

Ivy watches Jessica enviously. But she says nothing. She goes down to where Xing-Liu is.

Regent looks at Jessica..and shakes his head.."No..Jess, I couldn't..Thank you though" he blushes again..embarassed.

Stephie disembarks, looking about. She had a point: in that shirt, she really does look like an idiot tourist. If an attractive one.

Caleb notices Izzy again. "Folks, this is Izzy... Izzy, this' Scotty, Matt, Fist, Jess, Jace, Alex, Steph, Jen, Ivy, Phil, and Rach." He points as he goes, except he gets jen and jess confused.

Jace winces a bit looking up at the sun, "wow...its hot here..."

Ivy waves to Izzy. "Hey Izzy."

Alex grabs his stuff from teh over head compartment and heads off the plane.

Jace nods to Izzy, "Hey Izzy"

Caleb says, "Hey, 'lex, c"

Jessica says, "Matt, remember I said I'd be there if you ever needed me? I meant it. I'd be pleased to help."

Caleb says, "Hey, 'lex, cn you get my bag down too? I'm kinda busy bein' a horse."

Its about 85degrees F the sun is out, there is an off shore breeze coming from somewhere and there are thin breezy clouds in the sky. Palm trees line the tarmac.

Izzy smiles and nods to Ivy. "Hi. Or should I say, aloha!"

Regent nods and smiles.."Ok Jess..Thanks."

Ivy smiles to Fist. "Wow, this feels good.." She lets her arms flail out her body feeling the breeze.

Ivy giggles. "Aloha!"

The Attendants are removing bags from the hold and the compartments putting them on the hover platform.

Stephie says, "Like a plane to summer..."

Xing-Liu grins, seeming to share Ivy's opinion of the change in surroundings.

Ivy takes out her PDA to take pictures of everyone.

Alex says, "Got it, Cale"

A pretty huge hover SUV sits on the Tarmac and there is a hula group dancing and playing music at the car.

Ivy comments. "Man, tara would have loved this, I bet."

Caleb grins. "Yeah, this is all right." He is still in long sleeves and long pants under his tacky shirt, although he left the jacket in his bag. "Thanks 'lex!"

Jessica lifts Matt easily and places him carefully into the hoverchair. "Wow, I can feel the heat coming in through the open door. Is it a good idea to drink lots of liquids?"

Jace smirking at ivy, he snaps a picture of Caleb being a horse for his little brother

Regent nods, "Yeah, thats a good idea, but its humid too, so its not like the desert.

Stephie says, "Of course, that makes it feel hotter.... There's a lot to be said for hot and arid."

Regent lets Jess go first and follows after her.

Ivy takes a picture of the hula group dancing.

Once outside, Matt tells Cale and Alex, "I worked with your uncle on setting this stuff up." he grins.

Caleb nods. "Yeah, this is really somethin' Matt... thanks!"

Alex nods to Matt. "I'm impressed."

Ivy seems pretty happy and excited. She's forgotten all about Jessica and Matt.

Stephie grins to Ivy. "Not much point in any of the rest of us taking photos, I'm thinking."

Scott says "Uncle Chris!" and giggles.

Ivy smiles to Stephe, "Heh I suppose so."

The twins stand and just take in the scenery and surroundings. "Hey, guys, thanks for inviting me. This is going to be great."

Regent nods.."Its easy when price is no object.."

Ivy tries to get Xing-Liu to do some hula dancing. "Hey Xing-Liu.. Let's try it out. It's something like this.."

Ivy tries to mimic hula dance movements.

Jace raises an eyebrow to Regent, then is distracted by Ivy's over excited dance

The Platform starts to lower slowly until it touches ground. Matt takes a picture of Ivy, laughing.

Stephie says, "Hm.... an infinite supply of money. I've got to get one of those....."

Philippa snaps a photo of Ivy. "Priceless."

Caleb scowls but says nothing.

Xing-Liu tries, though dancing isn't her strong suit so much as just... moving. Which she does. So the dance turns into a sort of display of her own fighting ability mixed with the hula. It looks odd.

Stephie says, "Let's see Phil? Does it have blackmail potential?"

The driver says, "My name is Kimo, I'll be your driver, come follow me, I'll be taking you to the condominium at Kamaole Sands Beach."

Caleb sighs, shakes his head, and starts giving XL dance pointers. He doesn't go quite so far as to start hulaing himself, but he's more graceful than you might expect, even with a young child on his head.

Philippa shows the snap to Stephie. "So-so. But the vacation is still young."

Ivy tries to follow the pointers.

Jace lines up a good shot hoping that Caleb will give in and try it himself

Izzy is starting to feel REALLY outta place, and isn't sure exactly what to do. He knows most of these kids... well, knows OF them anyhow, and somehow managed to shirttail his way into first class with them, but he wasn't really part of their group. Looks like they were together on a planned family outting. He just signed up for the group rate air-fare he heard about at school. He started digging through his carry on to find the info on where he was supposed to stay.

Stephie says, "I just realised how little I know about Hawaii..."

As the group approaches the Hover SUV, the hula dancers approach the group giving them multiple hugs and kisses and leis. Some of the male dancers start to dance with Ivy and Xing-liu and the women hula dancers dance with Caleb and trie to get others into it.

Ivy cheers, "Woo hoo!" She accepts the leis and stuff.

One of the guys tells Ivy, "Eh..you get potential wahine!"

Caleb seems vaguely embarassed by the whole deal, though he was the one who started it. He lets Scott collect his lei and gets in the car.

One of the ladies blow a kiss towards Caleb as he gets in the car.

Philippa grins as she climbs into the car as well. "Caleb, did you know you had it in you."

Ivy smiles and is pleased by the praise.

Stephie grins.

Caleb grins and kisses back in her general direction.

As the crew starts to pile into the vehicle, Kimo stops Matt, "You last brah, da cah no mo room for yo chaiah, wait kay?"

Caleb shrugs to Phil. "That's cuz you never come along when I invite you dancin'."

Ivy asks Matt, "What's the problem?"

Ivy dances her way over to Regent.

Caleb says, "They can't fit his chair."

Ivy says, "Oh, So what then?"

Ivy says, "I mean what's going to happen?"

Regent turns to Izzy..."Hey, Izzy.." he looks unamused.."Izzy, where are you staying?"

Izzy starts to move on into the airport to claim his luggage.

Caleb gets out of the car. "Yeah, what's the deal?"

Ivy glances over to Izzy, "What's your number? So we can keep in contact?"

Izzy says, "Huh? Oh, got a package worked out. I'm at the... ummm... Why-not-ki-ki Motor Lodge."

kimo puts his hands up, "No worries Mistah Winters, da car is ok, He just gotta put the chaiah on the back, but We goin lift him up aftah your friends get in."

Ivy thinks. o O (Roaming charges are going to kill.)

Caleb nods. "Ah, OK."

Regent blinks.."Dude that's a fricken dive..." he looks at Caleb.."Cale, we got 7 rooms with enough beds, why not have him stay with us?"

Izzy says, "Oh, sure. Here." he gives him his number."

Ivy exhcnages numbers with Izzy so they can keep in contact while Regent and Caleb work out living arrangements for the break.

Xing-Liu looks a little confused by Kimo's English, trying to puzzle out how Caleb managed to get what he did.

Izzy says, "Or, at least that's the plan. I don't see a van here..."

Ivy doesn't seem to understand Kimo's English either.

Ivy shrugs to Xing-Liu.

Caleb nods to Matt and Izzy. "Um, yeah, I guess... sure, why not?"

Izzy says, "Maybe there's someone waiting by the kluggage ramp."

Regent tells Kimo, "Kimo, tell your guys doing the luggage to get Izzy's luggage too ok? Izzy give Kimo your claim check he'll take care of it."

Caleb gets back in the car.

Izzy looks sheepish. "You think? Really? I mean, I wouldn't wanna be any trouble..."

Ivy chimes in, "IT's not trouble at all!" Of course she's not paying for it.

Jace grins a bit and pats Izzy on the back, "They brought me along, they figured they were up to there ears in it all ready, what more could possibly happen?"

Kimo nods, "No problem Mr. Regent, Mr. Wintahs said to listen to you so hea we go. Izzy is your name eh? You get your ticket and luggage claim?"

Ivy tells Xing-Liu and stephie and jenn and jess, "Looks like they got it settled." She heads into the vehicle.

Ah! So Kimo does speak in ways that can be understood. Xing-Liu listens more closely, trying to catch words she doesn't immediately understand.

Ivy tells Phil too.

Izzy says, "Uh, yeah. I was just gonna go pick it up. I HOPE. It'd be just MY luck it didn't make it here."

Kimo shakes his head, "No worry brah, we goin get you fixed up. no worries, Kimo's limosine service is da best in the state."

Regent grins, "Izzy, with the money you're going to save plus the ugly shirts that Caleb has in abundance, don't worry about the clothes. Get it, I want to get to the beach!" he laughs.

Alex listens closely to Kimo, trying to pick up the accent. o O ( 'No worry brah...' )

Izzy says, "Uh, ok. It's a deal."

Ivy looks around the limo to see what goodies it has in there.

Stephie grins. "How many ugly shirts do you have, Caleb?"

Regent stands the chair up hovers up and Kimo helps him into the car, Kimo then takes teh chair and attaches it to a special mechanism in the back of the SUV. He pokes his head in, "'Kay so we all ready ah? Good cause we going see some nice stuff on da way to da condo and beach."

Jace steps into the limo after Izzy gets signed up

Caleb looks hurt. "None!"

Ivy shakes her head at Caleb for some reason.

There are Maui Style chips Taro chips, sodas, waters, fruits even a cut pineapple, The car starts up and smoothly starts to leave teh tarmac.

Ivy oohs and tries some pinepple.

Caleb munches on some fruit, though he did eat a full meal about an hour ago.

Xing-Liu looks at Caleb with a puzzled expression, then shrugs, riding inside the limo with a look of longing on her. It's obvious she'd rather be riding atop. At least, obvious to anyone who's seen her travel around the city using vehicles.

Jace reaches down and bogarts a soda from the cooler

Stephie ignores the food and drink and watches the scenery.

Caleb looks puzzled in Ivy's direction.

Kimo's voice sounds over the speakers, "So you kids stay from Virginia ah? dat's far away, but not too bad wit da planes now days eh? yeah, on your left you goin see da Pacific Ocean, We goin be passing pearl harbor soon, We goin be at the condo in 20 minutes, Enjoy da ride, ask me if you get questions kay?"

Ivy powers down the window. She gives Caleb another look.

Caleb thinks. o O (Pearl Harbor? That sounds familiar...)

Izzy looks a little relieved that others are munching down and starts to as well, but holds it down as Stephie abstains.

Caleb shrugs.

Stephie isn't even watching Izzy, as she looks out the window.

Regent leans over to get a soda, he ends up leaning over Jess and jen to get the soda.."Sorry ladies.."

Ivy doesn't look pleased at that but doesn't say anything.

Kimo says "I see you guys like the windows down, You like me open the sunroofs? Just tell me kay?"

Ivy says, "Oh that would be good! Please, Kimo?"

Alex would have settled for an interior seat, just because some had to sit there. He still looks out towards the scenary from where he sits.

Kimo can be see nodding from the front seat "You got it!" The sunroofs open, there are 3 on this large vehicle the warm air from outside floods in.

Caleb hrms and looks up at the sky once the sunroof is opened, then shrugs. . o O (Probly a short ride.)

Ivy stands up and pokes her head out the sunroof if that's possible.

Ivy offers a hand to Xing-Liu. "Look at the view from here!"

Regent takes a big sip from his Mtn Dew. "ah..that's good."

Scott is sandwiched between Alex and Cale and starts trying to undo his seat belt when he sees the girl(s) standing up.

Regent grins at Ivy and her enjoyment of this.

Jace nods to Regent and takes a big gulp of his dew as well

Ivy encourages everyone to stick their heads out of the sun roof. An unintentional insult to Matt probably.

Regent sighs..but says nothing.

Well, given opportunity, Xing-Liu climbs up onto the roof and rides atop, crosslegged.

Regent actually does say something.."Go ahead guys, it should be pretty cool." he puts on a fake happy tone.

Izzy just sits back and enjoys the view from seat level as the girls stand to look out the sunroofs.

Jace looks Regent over, "whats up bud?"

Stephie grins. "Anyone see any groups of tourists who look stupider than us?"

Alex says, "No Scott... it's not safe." He looks to Scott's eyes to make sure they connect, before he secures his younger brother's seatbelt. Alex is still wearing his.

Kimo yells, "Ay! What dat girl stay doing??" he slows the vehicle down alow.."She no can do dat, Ay, Mistah Regent tell her she no can do dat.."

Stephie is still seated too.

Regent shrugs..and points to his legs.."Sucks."

Caleb raises a hand. "It's OK, Kimo... she does this all the time back home. Weird, but there it is. Just keep goin'..."

Ivy is looking around, not paying attention to Kimo or anybody really.

Ivy tells Xing-Liu, "This is so awesome, huh?"

Alex looks around at the folks horsing around. o

Kimo's look and voice are plaintive, "Mr. Regent?"

Matt nods, "Its cool Kimo, don't worry."

Jace shrugs a bit, "We all got something that holds us back, but ya know? We gotta take it one step at a time"

Regent says to jace, "Go take a look man."

Alex looks around at the folks horsing around. o o ( You guys are setting a bad exampe... ) He wears a cross expression on his face.

Regent wonders if that "step" was a dig?

Xing-Liu grins slightly, completely ignorant of the commotion she's caused. At least she's finding the ride preferable to running alongside the car.

Ivy looks at the big ships at pearl harbor etc etc. She takes pictures of scenary and Xing-liu on roof of SUV.

Stephie notes Alex's look, and determinedly sets a good example, with Alex.

Jace says, "Well, you know what I mean, besides man, your surrounded by your friends man, in your home land right? Can't get much better than that"

Regent nods and smiles.."True Jace, true. Thanks, I appreciate it, sometimes I loose trace of what is important."

Jace nods a bit, "No problem bud"

Jace offers his can up in cheers to Matt

The scenery changes and its now shaded with a lot ot palm trees providing cover from the sun, they shortly arrive at the Condo. There is a man in a NOT-Gaudy aloha shirt and a pair of dress shorts and slippers waiting to greet the group.

Regent toast's Jace.

Regent slams his Dew.

Ivy nods to Caleb. "Yeah I think so."

Jace slams his dew back with Matt

Ivy sits back down inside.

Stephie smiles at the shade. Sun is nice, but some break from it is an improvement.

Ivy glances over to the twins. "How you liking it so far?"

Caleb blinks.

Kimo stops the car and the man waiting outside opens the door, Kimo says, "OK Kids, I'll get da luggage, you guys get situated wit your condo Ok? I'll see you guys latah today!" his tone is friendly and loud.

Alex looks to Caleb, stupefied.

Ivy looks confused all of a sudden.

Xing-Liu leaps from atop limo to land near to the greeting man, waving to greet him with a bright smile.

Caleb stares at Izzy.

Ivy looks over to Matt.

The man looks surprised.."Oh my..you. How are you Miss?"

Rachel blinks a bit closing her lap top her attention actully pulled from her stuff

Regent looks over at Ivy a questioning look on his face.

Caleb says, "Whoa."

Caleb says, "Um... OK. Let'sgetinourroomsnowshallwe?"

Rachel giggles some

Regent looks at everyone..'Whats up?'..he looks outside, "is it not good enough?" his tone is worried.

Caleb hops out of the car as if it were catching fire.

Rachel says, "It's wonderful, Caleb just got a bit of a shock"

Ivy waits for a good time to pull Matt aside to speak with him.

Stephie climbs out and stretches a little.

Regent waits for everyone to leave so that he can get out.

Caleb says, "No, no... hotel's great, Matt. Limo, too. All good. Just, um... PDA just went off... gotta return a call. Yeah. that's it.""

Ivy exits the car and walks to a more isolated area than the group.

Jace steps out himself, taking in the hotel looking a bit wowed himself

Rachel steps out smiling "I bet it was that message I sent yesterday, take your time with it hun

Izzy starts making his way out of the car, collecting his luggage. He left his kluggage behind.

Caleb nods vaguely.

Caleb heads to the reception desk to make sure everyone's reservations are in order.

Stephie gets her stuff too.

Rachel just shakes her head, picking up her only bag, which was small enough for carry on

Ivy grabs a bag and stands in the shade.

Rachel says, "So what do guys plan ta do after we are in?"

Stephie has a bit more stuff than she intended. But that's what a shopping trip with Phil does.

The man waits for everyone to get out when he greets them.."Aloha! Welcome to Kamaole Sands Resort, my name is Gary, I'm the manager here, Shall I escort you to your Condominium?"

Kimo laughs.."Kids I said I goin get da luggage, leave um, I got it kay?"

Stephie says, "Well, ok...."

Xing-Liu goes so far as to offer her fist toward the Manager, smiling.

Caleb seems to calm down a bit. "Um... yeah. Yeah, that sounds great."

Izzy flusters a bit and sheepishish puts it back.

Rachel sighs some and gives him her bag "Yea sounds great

Jace takes his backpack and walks into the shade himself, "Its so hot..."

Alex looks to Rachel. "You see the point behind a vacation is that you _leave_ the work at home. If I can manage it, you can too."

Gary almost jumps back then looks at the fist and smiles, "Yes yes miss, Its nice to meet you too..Shall we then"

Regent hasn't even gotten out of the car yet.

Ivy helps Matt out the car while whispering to him.

Rachel turns a bit red "But, I-I well, I had to you see" she seems a bit of at a loss

Stephie says, "Says the guy who was planning to use the air miles from this for visiting schools...."

Kimo brings the hover chair over.."Need some help?"

Ivy shoos Kimo away, "No.. I got it."

Alex says, "Yeah well..."

Regent looks surprised.."What?..wow."

Ivy struggles to help with Matt though.

Alex thinks. o O ( Maybe I can work on my apps tonight. )

Regent tries to help her with his own arm strength.

Regent nods to Ivy..and gives her an unexpected peck on the cheek..whispering something to her. Ivy rolls 3D6: 16

Xing-Liu offers assistance too, though not intrusively. So she stands nearby, waiting for a moment where she could step in and just be helpful.

Philippa says, "We should go to the beach, after we can settled in."

Rachel blinks a bit at the peck before nudging caleb

Jace rubs his eyes and face, "I'm so wiped, we going to hit the rooms soon?"

Ivy is suprised by the peck and almost drops Matt!

Regent starts to tumble from the car to the pavement.

And that's a thing Xing-Liu was waiting for. She moves in to catch Matt.

Ivy strains to help matt. "Oh No! I'm sorry!"

Jace tries to rush over to Matt to keep him from falling!

Regent shouts "Oh Shi.." but is caught by Fist..."Whew! Thanks!" he laughs.."Its my fault Iv.."

Stephie says, "Beach, definitely.... Hey, how many hours of daylight did we just gain?"

Jace stops just short near fist, and sighs in relief, "thanks Xing.."

Caleb adds to Alex "Y'know, y'ain't gonna hear me say this often, but I've _seen_ the line at her place, I c'n see why she's workin'. But I'll come up with some way of distractin-- hey, Matt, you OK?"

Gary says, "its about 8am here."

Ivy seems relieved that Xing-Liu and Jace are there to help. "Thanks guys." She blushes.

Xing-Liu smiles, waiting for the chair to be righted and steady before she gently helps Matt sit comfortably on it. She's a lot stronger than most kids her age...

Rachel blushes at Caleb suggesting a distraction "I-I think the beach sounds great...

Stephie says, "See? Day's barely started!"

Regent thanks everyone again.."Sorry about that guys." he smiles, "lets hit the rooms and figure it out, We got Surfing lessons in a little bit."

Caleb nods and waggles his eyebrows. "Yeah... we can watch the pretty girls, right?"

Rachel smerks some "Or the cute boys caleb,"

Caleb shrugs. "You c'n take care of that part."

Gary seems to be satisfied that everythign is settled and he starts to lead the group towards the condo.

Izzy says, "I coudn'tt really care less about cute boys. In fact, I didn't even know there WAS any such thing..."

Caleb follows, Scotty on the ground for once.

Rachel giggles "Trust me they exist Izzy, so what are you into then?"

Ivy coughs, "Stephie"

Finally you get to the rooms and it is house..a large house, its called Halekulani. House of the beautiful.

The condo is as is described in the desc of the room.

Philippa snickers.

Rachel just keeps her face strait as she can at that

Ivy points at the kitchen and says to Phil, "Oh look. Just like home, right Phil?"

Stephie isn't sure she caught it. But then Ivy *would* say that, anyway.

Izzy says, "NO! I mean, well, YES, but.." He realizes what he just said and blushes furiously. "I mean..."

Gary gives each of you a key, and says, "If you need anything simply press 0 on your phone and someone will come right over. Room service is availabel 24 hours a day and a full listing of services is found in your room directory. Is there anything I can do for anyone right now?"

Philippa looks around. "Maybe at your home..."

Stephie smiles at Izzy, amused, probably making things worse.

Rachel pats him on the back "It's okay streaky every one has that happen to them, personally if I was to go with a girl" and then she wispers something

Xing-Liu holds on to the key rather than trust her pockets with it. Notorious for losing things, shorts pockets are.

Ivy smiles at Philippa.

Jace thanks Gary and walks quickly off to the room, nearly colapses on a bed, going right to sleep.

Ivy doesn't have any pockets on her sarong so she asks for some string or something so she can wear it like a necklace.

Caleb raises an eyebrow in Rachel's direction. "If?"

Caleb puts his key in his wallet.

Rachel smiles sweetly as she puts it in her pants pocket. "None around here would go for it hun."

Izzy flusters and splutters, trying desperately to regain SOME measure of control!

Regent nods, "I have just the thing. He pulls a stringed pouch that can be worn around the neck.."This is great for keys and anything else."

Caleb shrugs. "Pity."

Ivy smiles to regent. "Oh thanks!" She takes it and puts her small pda in there as well as the key.

Xing-Liu begins to play with her key, balancing it on her finger.

Stephie says, "Yeah, the pouch looks handy!"

Ivy asks Xing-Liu, "You want me to hold on to your key for you, Xing-Liu?"

Gary smiles, "Kids enjoy the trip, call us if there is anything we can do."

Rachel thinks. o O (Hmmm I still don't get why Ivy was jelose over the idea of me and stephie.....) some presense with that as a focus..."

Xing-Liu offers the key to Ivy, smiling.

Gary makes a note of something, and smiles, "Have fun kids, the Limosine will return for you in an hour."

Ivy takes the key and drops it in her pouch that Regent offered to her.

Regent looks at everyone, "Well are we going In or are we going to stand here?" his tone is amused.."Come on!"

Ivy follows on inside.

Alex takes care of setting up Scotts room first.

Rachel nods and follows inside

Rachel says, "So to the beach right?"

Caleb follows everybody inside.

Stephie says, "Once we're sorted out, I guess. Who's sleeping where?"

Alex says, "Well a limo will take us to the beach for surfing in an hour."

Ivy looks for a room with an ice view of the ocean or someething.

Xing-Liu smiles, walking nearer to Ivy as the question is asked by Stephie.

Rachel shrugs "I'm good with any were as long as I don't have ta share a bed

Izzy says, "I might be willing..."

Ivy picks a room for her and Xing-Liu. "How about this one, Xing-Liu? It's got a great view! We got dibs on this room."

Caleb looks at Izzy. "Heh. You _do_ move fast..."

Rachel bumps Izzy trying to make it look like an accident at stephie and a room

Philippa starts scoping the layout of the condo. "Stephie, do you want to share a room?"

Stephie says, "Sure Phil!"

Caleb nods. "I guess me 'n' Scott 'n' 'lex'll grab one, then..."

Alex says, "Cale, I'll room with Scott, unless you want to..."

Rachel blinks a bit realizing he said he might be willing of course after she bumps him

Ivy glances over to Matt, "Where are you going to be?"

Alex nods to Cale. "That works. Winters HQ."

Upon entry there is a ton of stuff there already, fruit trays, waters juices, cheese trays, snacks, chocolate covered strawberries and an note that reads, "Welcome to the Kamaole Sands!" signed Gary Viernes

Stephie lets Phil pick the room, figuring she's more likely to be fussy.

Caleb asks Phil "One bed suit you?"

Rachel shrugs and chooses a random room "So I'm with Izzy right?"

Izzy glances at Rachel. "Well, I AM the unexpected guest..."

Izzy chokes.

Rachel shakes her head blushing for some reason "Okay okay,"

Izzy says, "Well..."

Caleb looks very much like someone who is trying to look very much like someone who isn't thinking anything.

Izzy glances Rachel up on side and down the other. "Ok, I guess."

Ivy hops on the bed. "Ooh comfy!"

Rachel says, "and izzy if you come near my bed I will make you a girl faster then even you can blink"

Regent grins, "Rachel, why dont you room with me then?.."

Rachel says, "because I trust you not to try and be a peeping tom"

Philippa settles on a room. Spacious with a view of the water. She response to Caleb. "One is fine."

There is one room with a King bed and the rest are with 2 queens each.

Regent looks confused, "You want a peeping tom then?"

Rachel says, "I can keep an eye on him.""

Philippa corrects. "For me that is... we'll need two in the room, of course."

Caleb spends a while working that out.

Regent grins.."Ok. I guess I'm with Jace then."

Rachel's comment, that is.

Rachel walks over to caleb and leans on him mummbling something

Izzy blinks at Rachel. "Oh, REALLY? That sounds like a CHALLENGE to ME..."

Regent blinks.."Holy Shizzle.."

Rachel says, "Do you really want to challenge that" and she blinks and the fire is gone again"

Regent looks at Cale, "Cale, why don't you or Alex take the king? You guys are paying for it."

Izzy says, "..."

Ivy comments, "Wow it moves that fast it bursts into flames?"

Izzy says, "Now THAT'S never happened before..."

Caleb facepalms.

Regent groans.."geez.."

Ivy goes back to her room to put her stuff away and help Xing-Liu get settled in.

Rachel says, "As I said Izzy you'd become a female if ya go near my bed, or I catch ya peeping"

Alex looks to Cale and shrugs. o O ( Do you want the King? )

Rachel is trying and succesfully keeping a strait face at Izzy's idoicness

Kimo arrives and starts to help everyone get situate.

Izzy thinks. o O (If I didn't have a secret ID... but if it's a fight she wants, I can make her vacation Hell.)

Caleb shrugs. "Why don't we leave the room free... folks can put a sock on the doorknob or whatever if it's in use, K?"

Alex winces.

Rachel gives Caleb a look at that

Ivy says, "That's gross!"

Caleb says, "What?"

Kimo laughs.."Ah da old sock trick eh?" he claps caleb on the shoulder, "you stay one funny guy Mr. Wintahs."

Caleb says, "A hangar, then."

Rachel suddenly passes gas, loudly and obviously.

Caleb grins. "Kimo... the name's Caleb. That's Alex, and that's Scott, and if you start callin' us all Mr. Winters it's gonna get real confusin', real fast."

Regent blinks.."Uh...sheesh..there are supposed to be 4 bathrooms here Rach.."

Izzy says, "Lookout! She's gonna blow!"

Ivy calls out, "Ewww!" She heads back to her room.

Rachel just shrugs "Sorry, I ate Izzy's cooking

Kimo laughs again.."You guys goin have one fun week I tink. Kay den, I see you guys in 40 minutes den. Tanks eh Caleb, just call me Kimo."

Stephie says, "Hey Phil, let's go get settled in."

Alex winces again. o O ( This could be a long vacation. At least there will be one peaceful day. ) A slight smile comes to Alex's lips.

Rachel closes her eyes for a moment

Regent hovers to his room not much for him to do..

Caleb gulps a bit and nods to Rachel, then gulps a bit more. "Um, Rach, let's go check out the beach..."

"Right." Philippa says. By the amount of luggage the Kimo has brought for Stephie and Philippa, it would seem that there were at least three people staying in that room.

Izzy suddenly smells very strongly off rotten eggs almost to the point a yellowish mist raises from him.

Caleb sighs.

Rachel smiles at caleb "Sure, let me get my bathing suit"

Caleb says, "Y'know, if you're gonna pull stuff like that, y'could wait 'till we _ain't_ all in the room?"

Izzy just sighs and takes it as honorably as he can. Let her make a childish fool of himself. He wont play anymore. At least not with something that can be traced back to him.

Stephie grins to Phil as she starts some preliminary unpacking. "Do you think I should change to that new bikini now, or save it for later?"

Caleb says, "Now."

Rachel gives caleb and raises eyebrow before she heads into her room

Izzy just turns and goes to his room.

Philippa shakes her head. "No... But it's perfect, now that you've planted that seed in their ears. Leave them wondering."

Caleb sticks his head into Winters HQ, then calls the front desk and asks for a third smaller bed to be set up there for Cale.

The beach is green..emerald to be exact, its pretty damn amazing considering the fact it is natural. the waves break with some intensity on the west side, but the shore breaks on beach in front of the condo are placid and nice.

Stephie grins. "Maybe you're right. Still, I can't wait to see the reaction...."

Rachel shortly comes out of the room in a bathing suit(changing desc for it

Stephie says, "I am getting out of this silly shirt, though."

Phil grins. "It'll will be worth the wait, believe me."

Caleb unpacks and comes back out into the main area, still basically dressed the way he was before, except wearing sandals and a sun-hat

Izzy just stays in his room. No use in letting Rachel ruin it for EVERYONE.

Regent takes off his gaudy shirt and throws it on the bed, maybe someone will help him unpack later. He hovers back out and heads into the handicap accessible bathroom for a few minutes, the water can be heard running after the door is locked.

A few minutes pass and Matt comes out, his hair is wet and it looks like he took a shower.

Ivy puts a shor-swim sarong under her long sarong. They are matching light green in color, with floral patterns.

Matt's PDA goes off and he answers it, he nods and says, "Ok Kimo, sounds good thanks!" he turns to the group, Surfing is put off for a couple of hours, the water's pretty rough.

Stephie changes to a one-piece swimsuit, a wrap, a sunhat, sunglasses and sandals, for now. A look she couldn't have started before the shopping trip.

Regent heads towards the back towards the front of the house and goes out to the porch. "You guys going to hit the beach or what?"

Caleb 's bump of direction aches as he watches Matt.

Rachel nods "Yea sounds good to me, but I doubt I'll be swiming

Regent looks at Caleb and throws some SPF50 at him, "Lots of shade out there man. Lets go!"

Ivy puts sun block on Fist before letting her go explore the island on her own.

Caleb shrugs and pockets the lotion. Maybe he'll change later. He heads out with Rachel.

Rachel leans on caleb some as the walk mummbling "It feels kinda weird not to be worrying about the shop and all and not having grease constantly on my hands....

Regent hovers out to the beach...the smell of the ocean and the sound of the waves are calling to him. He smiles and hovers near the water looking at it longingly.

Stephie thinks. o O (I hope dad doesn't notice how many clothes I've bought, or he'll wonder where I got the money!)

Caleb shrugs. "It'll let 'em know how much they need you 'round, is all. You get back 'n they'll be clamoring for business."

Ivy makes sure to hide her tattoos with a wrap before heading out.

Caleb says, "Hey, Matt, that thing work on water too?"

Rachel shudders some at that "I don't want that

Stephie heads back out to join the others.

Regent takes his shirt off, revealing a birthmark or tattoo that looks like a rising angel on his chest, his skin is tanned and despite being wheelchair bound his body is very well formed and strong. he looks over at Cale, "Its supposed to.."

Caleb looks puzzled. "Don't want the business or the clamoring?"

Caleb gets a PDA message and listens to it for a second. "Um, Rach... wait here a sec. I gotta take care of somethin'." He heads back to the rooms.

There are a few people on the Beach they all look at Matthew what's a cripple doing on a beach??

Ivy sets a towel on the sand/shore and decides to lie down and rest.

Caleb walks back into the condo and into Izzy's room, not actually bothering to knock.

Rachel looks at him blinking

Stephie goes out to the beach, affecting something of her cooly beautiful Allure look.

Izzy looks up and sighs. "Sorry. I meant to be gone before ya got back."

Regent turns..and..blinks..twice.."Whoa.." he can't stop from saying when seeing Stephie..

Ivy glances over to Phil and Stephie. She then lies back down. . o O (Not Fair!)

Ivy eyes Matt and sighs.

[To Izzy] Caleb says, "Yeah. Figgered. Don't be a yutz... she doesn't hate you, she's just crazy. And no way you're takin off now that you've gone and stripped the mask off, y'know? Just takes a while. You shoulda seen me 'n' Jen first couple of times we were out in the field... she was beatin' me up mor'n the bad guys."

Regent hovers over to Ivy.."Iv..lets take a dip?"

Stephie smiles, spreads her towel and stretches out on it. She theorises she doesn't need sun block any more....but she's never really tested the theory. Maybe a short exposure is a good starting test.

Izzy says, "Heh. Well, I have no intention to spend my vacation flaming and reeking. And it's not jist MY vacation she'll ruin! Even if none of YOU get set on fire or start stinkin', you'll have to put up with it. And I am NOT gonna have somebody's death on MY hands if she pulls that crap in the FIELD. If she's THAT crazy, she needs to be COMMITTED."

Ivy smiles to Regent. "Sure. Is it ok with your um.. um.." She doesn't quite know how to put it.

Izzy says, "Yay know, as ashamed as I am to admit it, my forst thought was just how to get even."

Regent smiles, "I can swim Iv..don't worry. I just need help getting out."

Rachel watches the water sitting next to stephie "What do ya wanna bet I really stepped in it with Izzy?"

Izzy says, "You know, just to look at it as a joke, and give as good as I got."

Caleb chuckles. "Yeah? So what changed yer mind?"

Stephie says, "I don't know him well enough to guess..."

Izzy says, "Well, it just occured to me that that's not me. I mean... I've always been a practical joker, but that's with my friends. Or, you know, my enemies. But, she's... I... I don't even KNOW her. And she HATES me. At some point, if we're teammates, my life could be in her hands, or hers in mine. I can't trust someone who hates me for no reason whatsoever!"

Ivy asks Regent, "Oh ok.. Hey.. what's this.." She's asking about the birth mark thing. "Wow you keep yourself in good shape." She seems impressed as she helps Matt into the water.

Regent smiles, "Thanks..and this?" he swims easily once its deep enough.."Its a birthmark, I don't know, but its pretty cool huh?..looks like I'm all tat'ed up."

Stephie says, "Though I suppose threatening someone's priavtes isn't generally the best way of starting a friendship."

Rachel nods some sighing as she pulls her knees up still watching the water, "Yea, I know....but I thought he could tell I was joking..."

Caleb says, "So, look... you wanna run away, ain't none of us fast enough to stop you. But, first, don't try 'n' make it like your protectin' us... we're still gonna be here. Second, don't make mountains outta molehills... she don't hate you. I'll talk to 'er. As for the in the field thing... yeah. Me, Jen, and Jess all nearly quit over that kinda thing a few days back. We made it work. Just takes time."

Rachel looks at stephie "could you tell....or did I come off to harsh?"

Ivy nods to Regent. She stays in the shallow area, and keeps her wrap/sarong outer wear on to keep her tattoo from being shown. "You are pretty good in the water!"

Stephie says, "*I* could, but I've known you for a while. And let's face it, I'm not a guy... threatening him, um, where it hurts might have been taken a little personally."

Regent smiles.."Take off your sarong, it can't help with the swimming," even without the use of his legs, he seems pretty good.

Ivy blushes. "Matt!" She splashes water on the guy who is asking her to remove her clothing.

Rachel figets some "Eh.....I should go apologize..." she stands up and starts towards the house

Regent laughs.."I see you have a swimming one underneath!...and anyway, you're beautiful, who'd mind?"

Ivy nods to Regent. "Yeah.. But.. I don't want anyone seeming my tattoos.."

Matthew sighs.."Ivy, we're a millions miles away from all that stuff. come on?"

Rachel walks over the room she saw Izzy go into and knocks lightly on the door

Ivy bites her lip and looks around. She goes back to shore and removes her outer sarong wrap and is now only in her swim-wear sarong. Same floral and light green pattern. She quickly runs over to the placid waters. Flattery really helps with Ivy it seems.

Izzy sighs. "I dunno. After everything that happened with the fire in the library, and the trial... I..." He looks around a moment as if afraid someone else might hear. "I was kinda afraid to stick my neck out, ya know? And now... I just don't want anyone ELSE to hate me because of things I DIDN'T DO!"

Regent smiles.."See..you are lovely.." he splashes her as she gets in the water and swims towards a little deeper water.

Stephie lies out again and relaxes under the sun. "I'm never sure the advice I give is any good," she says idly to Phil. "But I suppose people will stop asking me for it soon enough if it's not."

Ivy giggles and tries to splash Matt back. He's a good swimmer though and she tries to catch up.

Caleb nods. "Yeah, I know a little bit 'bout that. Me, I think you're readin' more in than's there. And even if you're right, ain't gonna help you 'fyou run away."

Rachel stands waiting by the door considering knocking again the door to the room Izzy and caleb are in

Philippa nods not really caring about Rachel at all..

Caleb says, "Yeah? Who is it?"

Izzy sighs. "Suddenly this goes from the left over room to Grand Central Station." He calls out. "Yeah?"

Philippa though spots something with the zoom of her camera. "Oh Stephie.. this is good." She takes a snapshot of Ivy.

Rachel calls through the door "I wannted to talk..."

Regent laughs.."Hey, for an east coaster, you're a pretty good swimmer."

Izzy says, "Oy vey."

Caleb nods. "Yeah, probly a good idea. Cease-fire?"

Stephie sits up, blinking a bit, having closed her eyes. "What?"

Izzy chuckles softly and shakes his head. "It's open."

Ivy sticks her tongue out at Regent. "Shut up! I barely passed swim class." She then acks as salt water invades her taste buds.

Philippa shows Stephie.

Regent nods, "See..that'll teach you." he laughs again and swims near her.

Rachel figets at the door before opening it slowly almost timidly "I'm sorry Izzy" she steps in closing the door behind her

Stephie smiles. "Good for her."

Phil asks Stephie, "You think it's worth anything?"

Izzy smirks. "Yeah? Who madeja say that?"

Phil tells Stephie, "Look closer."

Stephie looks closer and realises. "Oh...."

Phil has a devilish smile on her face.

Caleb leans against a wall and tries to stay out of the middle of this, wishing Alex were around. This is really more his kind of thing.

Ivy tries to swim after Regent!

Stephie shakes her head. "Yeah. Sadly, it probably is."

Rachel says, "No one, I kinda realized you don't know me well enough to know I was goofing off......and that I came off really mean...""

Phil goes to take a couple of more shots of Ivy. "Just in case.. You know?"

Stephie says, "In case what?"

Izzy says, "Goofin', huh? Haha. Pretty funny."

Regent bumps into her he was swiming toward her and she unexpected took off after him his hands touch things they shouldnt and he blushes and quickly tries to make some space .."A..sorry Iv'..I wasn't trying to..um..sorry.."

Phil shrugs. "Just in case."

Ivy doesn't seem to mind since it was a mistake. She playfully hits at Regents.. strong muscles.. hmm.

Izzy says, "I get it. You just do that with everyone, huh?"

Regent grins and tries to stay afloat with one arm while rubbing his shoulder with his other.."nice hit.." he grins.."Come I'll show you something."

Caleb shrugs, getting involved despite his better judgement. "Yeah, she kinda does."

Rachel rubs her head her look a priceless look of confusion before she gets her composure "Yea, well with the guys any way....."

Stephie lies back, not arguing the point. Someimes Phil is a great friend, and sometimes she's a bit too much her mothers's daughter. But arguing is unlikely to imprive matters.

Phil yawns and asks Stephie, "I think Jinghua and the others would have liked it here. Too bad they couldn't make it.. How is Jinghua, anyways?"

Rachel scraches her head some "I need better jokes don't I?"

Ivy nods to Regent and follows. "This isn't going to be gross is it?"

Izzy says, "I don't think I ever noticed anyone else around you have their crotch burst into flames, or start stinging to high heaven. Or for you to start talking about their powers in public... is EVERYONE here a member of the team?"

Caleb chuckles. "You ain't been here long. Just wait..."

Regent laughs.."no silly, Its cool. Come on!" he seems to swim about 40 feet out and suddenly he puts both hands out of the water,.."Check it out!" he yells.

Ivy blinks and wonders, "Wow.. how did he do that?" She swims towards him.

Caleb says, "But, yeah, everybody but Matt. And Jace, but he pretty much knows the drill, even if he ain't part of the team. Now he's one you wanna watch out for in the field."

Rachel nods some "usally I just go for smell, and the fire wasn't real" she creates another flame ball and lets it float towards him

When you reach Matt, you find there are a ton of boulders and he is sitting on one.."Its a breaker!"

Caleb says, "rach, the smell thing is worse. I've said it before, I'll say it again."

Rachel shivers some remembering she only has 2 weeks left

Rachel says, "atlest it goes away with you, remember if I get really emotional I make a full range of smells.""

Izzy smirks. "So all I need t' do is get you really emotional, huh?

Caleb sighs. "Yeah, you do all _kinds_ of things when you get really emotional. I know. Don't mean you gotta do 'em to everybody."

Ivy stands on the breaker. "Oh wow.. Neat!"

Phil casually rephrases herself. "You know.. I thought Jinghua and i were close.. But I guesss it isn't the case."

Rachel nods "My powers run of my hormons which means, more power use more emotional fluctionations." she isn't sure what caleb means as she looks at him

Rachel thinks. o O (is he being pervy, or blunt....)

Ivy sits down on the beaker next to Matt. "Hey this is a great trip so far."

Rachel says, "Normally I just get depressed for spands of hours"

Regent nods, "Cool huh?..now look over there," he points to a clear area in the water, there are tons of fish there.

Caleb shakes his head. "Anyway. You two weren't at the big Come-To-Jesus meeting we had the other day, so lemme give you the short form. Point of bein' a team is to watch each others' back. You two need to figure out if you c'n do that. Lemme know when you decide, 'k?" He heads to the door.

Ivy oohs.. "WOw.. Look at that. Can we go in there?"

Regent smiles at Ivy.."Thanks.." he leans over and gives Ivy a peck on the cheek.

Ivy asks Matt. "Matt.. Why do you keep doing that?"

Ivy seems to be serious a bit more.

Regent shrugs and smiles.."Why don't you stop me?"

Ivy blushes. "I don't know.."

Rachel watches caleb go shaking her head some before looking back to Izzy "I'm sorry that I came off the way I did.."

Rachel says, "Cease fire on pranks and trouble for each other?" she holds out a hand"

Regent smiles, "Let me know when you do." He pushes himself off the breaker and swims to the school of fish.

Stephie says, "I think you are still close Phil... At least.... I know she's feeling strong family responsibilities. If not for that, I'm sure she'd come, and be with the cheerleaders too... But why she's not talking - I don't know. Maybe her father doesn't want her to? I can't guess..."

Izzy says, "Look, you can do whatever you want to me, I've been a practical joker and would like to THINK I can get as good as I get... but, let's not ruin anyone elses vacation, huh? Besides..."

Ivy hesitates a bit, thinking to herself. Then she looks up and Matt is down at the fish area. She sighs to herself not really understanding her feelings and goes swimming after.

Stephie says, "I hadn't really realised until this Smiling Johnny business that she's working with a whole different set of cultural assumptions I don't pretend to understand...."

Rachel starts to nod some, but she pauses at the besides...

Philippa nods to Stephie and turns over. "I guess I should relax too.."

Philippa doesn't mention about understanding or trying to understand these things.

Regent swims down a bit and can hold his breath for quite a long time before having to come back up.

Izzy he watches as Caleb slips out. The he turns to Rachel and grins. "Now, you look like SUCH a jerk!" He leans in and kisses her on the forehead. "I think I'm up for the beach after all." He snickers and grabs his stuff and runs on out before she has a chance to react.

Ivy holds her breath and goes swimming around looking at all the beautiful splendor.

Rachel blinks a bit trying to figure out what just happened that funny look of confusion flying over her face before she yells "NO FAIR!!!!"

there seems to be hundreds of fish below yellow and green, blue and silver, they all seem to be pecking at the breakwater

Ivy goes up for more air before coming back down to see the fish.

Regent returns to the surface with Ivy as well and dives down with her again. pointing to various fish and a morey eel that pokes his head out of a crevice.

Ivy flinches away from the eel. She's not used to that!

Stephie says, "Relaxing - yeah. That's what I'm here for. With one thing and another, everythings been so hectic lately. Ok for you, you can be in five places at once..."

Philippa nods. "Yeah, you want some drinks? I'm making some in the kitchen."

Stephie grins. "I was just going to ask where else you are. Please. Are you even all in Hawaii?"

Regent smiles..and heads for the surface..laughing, it can be heard underwater as he laughs, he breaks water and sits on the breakwater laughing.

Izzy finally makes it to the beach. He's even in his swimsuit. He doesn't come too close to anyone else though, and just sits forelornly in the sand.

Ivy follows Regent up. "Hey! What's so funny?"

Philippa doesn't really answer Stephie. "I wonder if I get a tan, the rest of me will get a tan too?"

Regent looks over.."Izzy come on over!" he yells..turning back to Ivy he grins.."you silly, the look on your face when the Eel poked his head out at you.." he ruffles her hair, "He was just trying to get a better look at the cutey visiting him."

A Philippa appears from the kitchen with drinks for everyone. She goes around handing out drinks to those on the shore.

Stephie says, "Oh, you don't know yet? Figured you'd have found out last summer. But then, I don't know yet if I'll burn...."

Ivy raspberries to Regent. "It just poked out! It scared me!"

Regent grins.."Yeah I know, I can't wait til you see the sharks."

Ivy gulps and looks at the beautiful waters. "Sharks...?"

Izzy looks up and blushes a little, but gets up and crosses over to regent.

Regent smiles.."Yeah, but they're not dangerous, they don't like human flesh."

Ivy asks Regent, "How do you know? I saw those specials on the vid.." Ivy shivers at the thought.

Regent grins.."Come on Iv.."

Ivy says, "What?"

Jace wakes up from his power nap, gets into swimming trunks, and heads down to the beach where everyone is at, with drinks, an umbrella and sandwiches in a basket in toe.

Ivy waves to Izzy as he heads over. She's talking to Regent at the breaker.

Regent grins, "Shark shows only show the worst. Hawaiian gray tip sharks haven't attacked anyone since the 20th century."

Ivy tries to think. "How long ago is that?" Math isn't her strong point.

Regent smiles, "over 50 years Iv."

Philippa brings Stephie a drink. "Try this. .It's wicked."

Ivy nods. "Wow. Ok.. I guess." She tries to feel reassured, but isn't so sure."

Stephie tries the wicked drink. :)

Jace sets up his umbrella and sits down on the beach, watching the others swim, rather ivously

Regent yell over to his room mate.."Jace come on over!"

Jace thinks. o O (So that explains alot)

Ivy whispers something to Regent.

Jace stands up and runs off into the water, jumping at the last second all baywatch style, swimming over to them.

Regent blinks.."What accident?" he says softly.

Ivy whispers to Regent.

Stephie says, "Not bad!"

Regent blinks confused. "Uh?..huh?"

Ivy shakes her head as Izzy and Jace swim over. "Never mind.."

Ivy seems confused herself.

Jace says, "Izzy my man, you seem awfully attuned with water, you swim alot?"

Ivy splashes water on the new comers, "Hey Jace, Izzy."

Regent grins at Jace and Izzy.."I hope you guys got some SPF on!"

Jace looks a bit confused and then grumbles a bit, "Oh crap..."

Phil nods to Stephie and one of her heads back to the condo while the other sunbathes with Stephie.

Jace is nearly as pale as Caleb

Izzy says, "Well, certainly not as much as I'd like to. But my dad wanted to make SURE I could take care of myself, and taught me to swim."

Ivy tells Jace, "Hurry! Or you are going to burn!"

Regent nods "Izzy you got some on?"

Izzy says, "Hrm? Some... what?"

Jace swims back and towels off, then sits down on his towel to put some lotion on, then enjoys a bit of a HUGE sandwich

Ivy says, "Some sunblock, silly!"

Regent says, "SPF Izzy..you'll burn quick if you don't have any on."

Izzy says, "Oh, yeah. I forgot."

Stephie is getting the sense that she was right - she's not going to burn!

Izzy blushes.

Phil rubs more lotion on. "The sun is pretty strong here. How are you doing, Stephie?"

Regent is already dry except for his hair and his shorts, he pulls a small bottle from his pocket, "Iv you want some more on you?"

Izzy says, "I'll be right back." He starts to paddle back. "Hopefully..."

Stephie says, "I seem to be fine. Remember, the doctor said I seemed to have some sort of regenerative ability? Enough that sunburn's not a problem, anyway."

Ivy nods to Regent. "Sure!" She lifts her hair up and turns around, back facing Regent.

Regent puts some in his hand and starts to massage some into her skin, shoulders, arms back neck.

Ivy seems to relax as the lotion is worked in.

Regent puts the lotion away, "You're good Iv." he smiles. "now what were you saying about an accident?"

Ivy says, "You said um about your dad, in hawaii?"

Ivy doesn't mention his legs etc.

Regent blinks.."Oh..oh, no, this isn't the place, its at the volcano. I was wondering if you wanted to go with me to visit the site?"

Ivy nods to Regent. "Sure.. YOu are going to be ok with that?"

Regent nods.."I think I need to go."

Ivy nods to Regent. "I'll be there with you, Matt."

Phil falls asleep sunbathing with Stephie. Stephie falls asleep.

Regent nods and hugs Ivy. "Thanks..I appreciate it."

Ivy hugs Regent back. She smiles happily and then splashes water on him again!

Regent acks and laughs he pushes off and starts swimming again.

Jace grins a bit watching the two of them

Ivy waves at Jace and Izzy before diving into the cool waters. Or warm.

Regent yells over, "Guys come on back out, check out these fishes!"

Regent splashes Ivy and dives down.

Jace hrms for a moment and continues on his sandwich, "maybe in a minute"

Ivy swims around idly.

Regent breaks the surface about 20 feet away from Ivy and he says, "Check this out..come on!" he dives back down.

Ivy swims over, wondering what Regent wants to show her.

Regent motions from below to come on down..there is something large swimingin the water..it looks like a turtle.

Ivy bobs her head down and looks. She smiles as bubbles comes from her mouth and nose. Ooh a turtle or something!

Regent smiles..and swims close to it, keeping away from its head he touches the shell and motions for her come come over and touch it.

The turtle placidly ignores the visitors to its realm.
