As they got there, Daniel pulled up beside them on a large yellow bird. It seemed similar to an emu, or an ostrich, yet was clearly stronger, faster, and magical.

"Oh sure, you get to ride a chocobo, but the rest of us had to walk. Melody complained as Sam set her down and Ziella pried the tape off her mouth.

"Quit your complaining or I'll make you walk all the way back to Yanclala to ask Chuatomec for a cup of sugar." Pondera said.

"I'll behave!" Melody promised quickly.

"Good, then set up the tents." Pondera said, and immediately set to preparing his and Carol's. Jezeel started in on her's and Charlie's.

They'd discover, there weren't enough tents for everyone to have one, they'd have to, share. The sleeping bags sure were big.

"Uh, did you remember how many of us there were?" Daniel asked.

"Yep. See, it gets real cold around here at night. So you're going to need to master the art of cuddling with your girlfriend pretty darn quickly. It's not sex, but it sure is satisfying to hold that one person you love all night, and just, talk." Pondera said.

"I love you!" Sarah Angel exclaimed hugging her father.

She wouldn't be the only one as she was joined by William, Dexal and Charlie.
"I love you too!" Charlie said.
"Oh brother!" Carol chuckled.

"Huh, and here I thought Charlie could hold Jezeel all night any time he wanted to." Pondera said.

"Hey Willie, that isn't finishing getting this blasted tent set up!" Karesh complained.

"Yeah Dexal!" Ziella chimed in.

"Charlie, it won't go in the hole." Jezeel complained, which caused all the girls to look at her, Pondera too. Daniel and Aspari just shook their heads, as she struggled to get the tent peg through the last hole.

"That's funny, we've never had that problem before," Charlie said as the boys all returned to help their loved ones put up the tent.
William grimaced at Karesh, she knew how much he hated being called Willie, before helping her with the tent.


"Sorry Ziella," Dexal said, "I had to thank Uncle Pondera."

Karesh gave him a look that clearly indicated she would've kept her mouth shut if he'd finished setting the tent up first.

Soon enough everything was set though.

"Hey, what about us?" Garthox asked, gesturing at himself. Victoria, and Susan.

"Well, Leo doesn't qualify yet, besides, his father's having him do some intensive training. You and Victoria have no one, so you three get to share a tent." Pondera said.

"You mean, I get two girls, while they only get one?" Garthox grinned.

This set Jezeel to laughing.

"It isn't quantity that matters, it's quality." Sara said.

"Well, I think very highly of my cousin and my sister." Garthox returned diplomatically.

"Aww, thanks Garthox" Susan said, giving him a hug.

"Yeah, thanks Garth," Victoria said, also hugging him.

"I don't know The Argus Hoard, the amazing many daughters of the three Argus sisters, they all like me. It'd be irresponsible of me to not share. Why, it'd even be wrong." Garthox reasoned.

"Oh lord." Pondera said, rolling his eyes.

"So, uhh, how do we share a sleeping bag?" Karesh asked.

"Very carefully. One of you takes one side, the other takes the other side." Jezeel answered.

"What if one side is the bottom?" Karesh asked.

"And the other side is the top?" Ziella asked.

"Then you'll have an enjoyable night indeed." Pondera said, knowing full well neither girl was ready to go all the way, neither was either boy.

"Meanwhile, shoo, scatter, explore, fish, climb, hike, have fun, figure out how to share a sleeping bag you're own selves." Jezeel said.

"Come on Karesh," William said, "What do you want to do."

"Come on Ziella," Dexal said, "Let's go fishing."

"Want to come climbing Garthox?" Susan and Victoria asked.

"Sure." Garthox and Ziella answered at the same time.

"I wanna fly to that mountain top, and see what's on the other side." Karesh said.

"What about you Nyx?" Sam asked.

"Ye'og Nedhix Flyrthwe." Nyx replied.

"Sorry, what?" Sam asked.

"Sorry, slipped into Calistran. I said I wanted to race you on foot to the same mountain top Karesh wants to fly to." Nyx said.

"Oh, ok. I didn't know The Burning Sands spoke something we couldn't understand." Sam said.

"Oh no, why would it be?" Nyx asked.

"convenience?" Sam asked.

Garthox found a face of the mountain and started climbing it. Karesh took off flying for the peak. Sam and Nyx took off running. Ziella stepped into the tent with her pack.

"Be right there!" she promised.

Garthox had left his shoes at the base, and was very clearly some sort of climbing machine cleverly disguised as a small boy, as in the race to the top, he was currently in the lead. Karesh was giving it all she had though, and was close to taking second place from Nyx, who ran as though pursued by frightful enemies. Sam kept steaming along, and was tied with William for fourth, even as Susan and Victoria were in last place.

Ziella meanwhile stepped out in a purple two piece bikini that drew raised eyebrows from Pondera and Jezeel.

"What? I'm not stepping in that water to catch a fish in my normal clothes, not no way, not no how." She said.

"Alright then." They said, and left it at that. With that, she brushed Dexal's chin with her tail as she went past him to the water barefoot.

Dexal quickly stripped down to his swimming shorts and followed Ziella into the water.
"Nice Bikini," He said, Deliberately looking her in the eye.

Victoria, a skilled climber in her own right, wasn't going to be beaten, and she began to draw ahead of Susan and past William and Sam, much to William's surprise as he increased his pace to try and catch up with Karesh.

Garthox redoubled his efforts, even as a breeze blew gently past them all.

Karesh slowed down enough for William to catch her, Nyx found a dead end, so she headbutted the wall, and after the ensuing rockslide, clambed upwards, Sam grinning away as he followed behind.

Victoria began to leap from rock to rock, using her wings to give her boost.
Susan meanwhile make her own pace up the mountain.


"How did we get dragged into a race?" William asked as they climbed higher.

"Remember, first day we met, explained the competitive nature of demons?" Karesh asked, jogging his memory.

They were almost to the top. Garthox clambered up over the side.

"SARA!" He could be heard exclaiming all the way down at camp.

"Doh! The breeze we felt rushing past us." Sam said.

"Your wind form doesn't count!" Nyx hollered at the mountain peak.

....

"I wore it so you could look." Ziella complained, while clearly eying him up and down after having slipped into the water.

"You big smelly cheat!" Victoria said, launching herself over the top of the mountain.

"I guess I've picked it up from you then," William chuckled.

....
"Oh well, if that's the case," Dexal said, before spending the next few minutes circling Ziella and eyeing her up.

"What do you think Sarah Angel?" Sara asked, as the nature goddess popped up out of the ground.

"It is unusual." Sarah Angel agreed, both were looking at a massive sandstorm in the mountains.

Firebolts flashed within it, as Nyx reached the peak.

Nyx went pale as a sheet, trembling.

"Callistra." She breathed, staring wide eyed and in shock at the sandstorm.

"Are you sure about that?" Sara asked, apparently taking her very seriously on the subject.

"It does feel very alien." Sarah Angel agreed.

"That's it then," William said, "Back down to camp."

'He's right," Susan said as she reached them, "The adults need to know."

"Nyx, come back!" A giant voice in the sandstorm begged, a male voice.

Then the entire thing simply disappeared. Sara backflipped into wind, the others simply dived off the mountain, even Garthox, though he was circling for the base and his shoes.

Ziella meanwhile, lifted her tail out of the water, looking thoroughly confused at the fish firmly attached to the end of it by its teeth.

"I never thought I'd catch a fish with my tail." Ziella said, removing the fish and examining her tail. She was unharmed.

William, Susan and Victoria all dove down the mountain.
....
"Maybe they just can't bare to be away from you?" Dexal suggested.

Ziela shrugged.

"Hey Mom, you got something to keep fish fresh handy? I caught one with my tail!" Ziella called.

Jezeel sniggered, and tapped Charlie on the shoulder to indicate he should go help with that.

Meanwhile, the group landed, though Garthox came running up, shoes in hand.

"Callistra has entered The Multi-verse!" Nyx warned.

"Ok." Pondera said, not doing anything beyond reclining and relaxing.

"He was just on the other side of the mountain." Sarah Angel added.

"That's nice." Pondera said.

"Don't you care?" Sam asked, not knowing Pondera was actually checking the balance in another body, hence his apparent relaxation and simple answers. Carol would know though. Someone else might even figure it out if they thought about it.
