She couldn't explain it but it made her feel safe and...somehow it just felt right.... Vicki was about to ask which way she should go next when she saw rather ominous looking clouds on the horizon. That certainly couldn't be a good sign... not only that but they were right in the direction they needed to travel in order to reach the hot springs quickly. Before Vicki could direct Lucifer where to go they were caught in the middle of the storm. The pelting rain combined with the wind was making it rather difficult for the Hydreigon to continue flying and thus just barely managed to land in a nearby forest before the first peal of thunder was heard. Stiffening slightly, Vicki took a deep breath and tried to relax....it was just thunder...nothing to be afraid of..... "We should try and find some shelter,"Vicki said before sliding off of Lucifer, waiting for Jack to do the same, and returned her Hydreigon. It would be easier to find someplace where they could wait out the rain without Lucifer crashing through the forest too. To make matters worse, Vicki had no idea where they had landed....as far as she knew they were in the middle of nowhere.... This certainly wasn't turning out like she'd planned....well, at least things couldn't get any worse....[/scrolly] |

For that reason, they had gone a lot more east than intended. However, he had assumed it would be fine. How wrong he was. The thunderstorms that they had entered were all but a testament to the fact that he had fucked up, and Jack knew it. You're an idiot Third sighed. Jack sighed as well. However, this was cut by the rumbling and lightning that fractured the sky. "We need to get out of the air!" Jack shouted, but he was unsure if he had even been heard. However, they landed shortly after that prompting him to believe he had despite the wind.
Feet hit a sloshing ground, and as soon as Jack was off, he felt like he was falling forwards in the grass. Catching himself on a tree, he looked sideways upon hearing Victoria's voice. "What'd you say?" he asked as the rumbling threatened to block out his voice as it seemed to have done for Vicki's. Shaking his head, he ended up stepping sideways and snagging Victoria under one arm before starting to walk beside her. He felt like he was already drowning in this place. They needed to find somewhere higher up....or something.

Eyes growing wide, Vicki froze and put her hands over her ears. She had been wrong...things could get worse... and they had. Feeling Jack's hand under her arm Vicki was more or less dragged until her feet started to cooperate. She was soaking wet and freezing no thanks to the wind,"Where are we?"Vicki asked right before the thunder rumbled again. Shuddering, Vicki more or less clung to Jack as they continued to walk. Everything would be just fine...it was just a little thunder and...Jack was with her. Yes...it would be just fine...or at least that's what Vicki kept telling herself...[/scrolly] |

Instead, he simply continued to force himself forwards. The thunder and lightning had set him on edge, and sounds were all around them. Purple eyes flashed around before finally looking upwards, and suddenly Jack found himself staring. There were buildings... above them... No way... Third growled. That was impossible. Not if they're ninjas! Ninjack suddenly commented, and BJ suddenly remembered the town: Tree-Top Town. The few times that he had to run a package or two into the town, they had had him leave things on the forest floor and often made him leave promptly without any questions asked, but now.... Now they were there and this was possibly the only shelter they would find. "Tree-Top Town..." the purple haired man commented before making a point towards the bridges and the houses above them both.

As it was she was more or less clinging to Jack as much to maintain her balance as to keep her from freezing entirely. All Vicki wanted to do at that moment was crawl into a cave or somewhere dry and wait until the storm passed but there didn't seem to be any shelter nearby. It wasn't until Jack said where they were and pointed up that Vicki opened her eyes (she had clenched them shut after a particularly loud peal of thunder) and looked. Blinking at the bridges and houses, Vicki wondered briefly what sort of people would live in the jungle. At the moment none of that mattered...houses meant somewhere warm which meant she could get out of the storm."Let's go..."Vicki replied easily before heading over to where she thought she had seen a ladder.[/scrolly] |

Once they got there, Jack looked towards Vicki before snagging hold of the ladder and forcing it to stay straight. "Climb up first and I'll hold it still," he shouted above the rushing air.

At least now they might be able to get out of the worst of the storm... Nodding at Jack's words, Vicki climbed onto the ladder and quickly scaled it. In little time she was at the top and on solid ground. Waving at Jack to climb up, Vicki rubbed her shoulders in an attempt to warm herself while waiting for him. Once Jack had reached the top, Vicki shivered and looked around the village wondering where they could go. As much as she wanted to be someplace warm right now it wouldn't be right to just go barging in to one of the houses. "Where to now...?"Vicki asked after a moment before flinching as she heard thunder yet again.[/scrolly] |

He had always been comfortable with higher places, and thus, this was actually easier for him than for most. Upon getting to the top, Jack shook his head and brushed away his soaked bangs that threatened to make some sort of mask for him. Looking around the platform they had just climbed up, Jack stared at the various houses, yet he knew not which to go to. "Dunno..." he admitted before slowly starting to walk and looking around as though he were trying to judge which house held someone who was possibly friendly. "Tree-Top Town..." the purple haired man muttered before stopping under the awning of a house and staring at the door. This one was good as the next, right? Right... Looking sideways at Victoria, Jack stepped forwards somewhat weakly before knocking on the door.
It had been raining forever to Okita, and he had stayed inside most of the day because of it. He had only been back in the village for about a week after his last mission,but the rain was threatening to make him stir crazy. The knock on the door caused the brown haired man's head to turn, and after a few seconds, he rose to his feet and started towards the door. Wonder who that is... Well he'd get to see right? Right. Sliding it open rather quickly, he stared at the soaked people. "Huh? Who are you?"

Half of it was plastered to the side of her face while her bangs threatened to cut off her line of sight. Sighing, she brushed back her hair from in front of her good eye and followed Jack when he started to walk around. When Jack knocked at the door Vicki leaned slightly against the side of the house, glad that they had at least gotten out of the rain for the time being. With any luck the resident of the house would let them in and they would be able to dry off. Seeing a man come to the door, Vicki stood up straight and rubbed her arms again, not quite sure what to say... She had never really been good to talking to strangers and well... Sure it was easy to talk to Jack but that was...different. "Vicki..."she replied calmly to the man's question before falling silent.
Chizuru had been visiting with Okita when they heard a knock on the door. Well...that was interesting who would be out in a storm like this one. Well...one of her brothers enjoyed the rain so that would make sense if it was him but there was no reason for him to come here. Chizuru's thoughts echoed Okita's as she watched him go to answer the door. Okita's words put her on edge and a few moments later Chizuru was beside Okita staring at the strangers in front of the door. What would outsiders be doing in Tree Top Town on a day like today...it was insane to be out in a thunderstorm...[/scrolly] |

Jack breathed in when he saw the man at the door, and as the young woman came up as well, he found himself unsure of which to look to and ended up staring between the two of them. "The name's Jack... we.... kinda got lost in the storm and...." he started finding himself unsure of what he wanted to say. After a brief moment, he looked sideways at Victoria before looking forwards again. "C-can we come in and dry off?" he asked finding himself shivering as the wind passed.
Okita stared for a few seconds trying to figure out whether or not he actually knew these two or not, yet the names didn't ring any bells. Jack's question, however, was sincere enough... and even if they were outsiders, no one deserved to stay out in the rain. Looking towards Amy for a moment, Okita looked back again and stepped sideways. "Leave your shoes here.... Amy could you get some towels from the wall drawer?" the brown haired man asked.
Jack breathed a sigh of relief that they were allowed to come in and slowly stepped inwards, sliding off his soaked shoes as he did so.

Vicki waited as Jack explained the situation and found herself shivering in the wind. She was miserable and freezing but at least the thunder had stopped for the time being... Nodding her thanks to the man as he allowed them inside, Vicki pulled off her shoes and stepped inside after Jack.
Chizuru listened as Jack explained they had gotten lost in the storm and fought the urge to sigh. So much for a quiet evening with Okita... Nodding at Okita's question, Chizuru found the towels quite easily and took a few over to Jack and Vicki before bowing slightly. Well, they were guests now so Chizuru supposed she couldn't really say anything against them but it was still curious.
Vicki nodded to the woman when she was given a couple of towels and started to at least try to dry off her sopping wet hair. Her clothes were soaked through to the point where they were plastered against her skin. Which meant that any change of clothes Vicki had happened to bring along would be in pretty much the same state judging by the state of her bag.

Okita Soji watched as Chizuru walked deeper into the house before coming back again with the towels. Taking a few and handing them to Jack as Amy handed a few to Victoria, he stepped back and looked them over again. "Oi, you guys look like ya drowned out there..." he commented before bringing a finger to his chin, stepping back, and walking down the hall before disappearing. Jack blinked in confusion as Okita disappeared and looked towards Amy and then towards Vicki as he continued to try and dry himself off, taking one of the towels and wrapping it over his head and shoulders while wrapping another around his waist. No matter what he did, water continued to hit the floor.
"No one said anything about storms up here.." Jack joked weakly before sighing to himself upon realizing just how not funny it was. Purple eyes simply focused on the ground after that. The sounds of feet walking back a few minutes later was what finally brought Jack's eyes back up if in time to see Okita carrying two kimonos, one obviously more masculine than the other. "Change of clothes?" he offered with a half smile. Jack hesitated before slowly stepping forwards and taking the one Okita had held out to him. Damn it was warmer at least. Get out of those wet clothes before we freeze... Third growled. Jack didn't have to be told twice though he did look towards Vicki and Amy for a brief moment before peeling his wet shirt off, adjusting the towel as he went.

Vicki gave a weak half laugh when Okita commented on how wet they looked and continued to dry her hair. Putting the other towel around her shoulders in an attempt to get warmer Vicki continued to at least try to dry herself off though it seemed no matter what she did water just kept dripping on the floor. Hearing Jack attempt a joke, Vicki smirked, "We were flying somewhere and had to land...as strong as my Hydreigon is even he can't make it in a thunderstorm..."she explained briefly before Okita came back with the kimonos. For a moment Vicki simply stared at the outfit before taking it and nodding to Okita. She was about to ask where she could change when Jack peeled off his shirt bringing a rosy blush to Vicki's features as she quickly averted her eyes and stared at the ground. "Jack..."Vicki mumbled before falling silent, not sure what to make of this feeling. Chizuru couldn't help but chuckle softly at Okita's comment and leaned against a doorpost as Okita went to get something. She was about to offer to show Vicki where to change when Jack stripped of his shirt. oieuroiweu ;;; what did this guy think he was doing!! This was the middle of the room and and just @_@.... Blushing profusely, Chizuru averted her eyes (though she couldn't help but note that Jack looked ho-no snap out of it!) and took Vicki's arm before leading her to another room where she could get changed. Vicki felt a hand on her arm and jumped slightly before realizing that it was the woman. Allowing her to lead her away, Vicki was relieved that they were in another room away from the guys... Jack had just- and... Shaking her head, Vicki made sure that the door was closed before beginning to change as well.

Jack seemed almost completely unfazed by both Victoria and Amy, but he did notice as both girls went to a different room. Pealing off his pants after that, Jack stood almost nakid in front of Okita who just shrugged his shoulders and leaned against a wall waiting for him to finish. "So where ya from?" Okita asked causing Jack to look over as he pulled this new robe on. He sometimes hated that question, even if it was a natural one to ask. "Everywhere," he replied with a shrug. "My work makes me travel," he explained before finishing tying his new warm cloth up and continuing to dry his hair with the towel. "Oh? What do you do?" Okita asked with a bit of interest. Was the woman with him his work partner or something and they had just happened to get stuck in the storms or something? Jack hesitated a moment and chuckled. "I'm a trader," he replied. "I work in shipping and stuff."

After removing her wet clothes Vicki quickly pulled on the robe, sighing quietly at how warm it was in comparison. Staring at the sash that was supposedly supposed to tie in the back Vicki tried to tie it only to have the woman step in. "Here, let me,"she said quietly before tying the sash rather easily,"I'm Amaya by the way, most call me Amy for short." Vicki was glad that 'Amy' had offered to tie the sash and waited until she was done,"Thanks,"Vicki replied before folding up her wet clothes. Amaya nodded and shook her head,"It's nothing, here I can take those for now,"Amaya replied easily before taking the wet clothes and wrapping them in one of the towels Vicki had disgarded. Vicki nodded her thanks before putting the other towel on her head and opening the door. The soft pink kimono was certainly comfortable at least though Vicki still preferred her normal attire. Still, the outfit was warm which was a relief to Vicki... Walking into the other room, Vicki continued to dry her hair not watching where she was going and subsuquently ran into Jack. Realizing what she'd just done, Vicki blushed and muttered a quiet 'sorry' before taking a step back feeling foolish for not looking where she was going in the first place.
Amaya meanwhile had taken Vicki's wet clothes and hung them up to dry and was in the process of making some tea. On a day like today the newcomers would probably appreciate something warm to drink if nothing else.

Both men shared a few more words up until Jack suddenly felt a body knock into him. Nearly falling over but catching himself, he looked sideways to see Victoria's new attire. Soji looked sideways as well and smirked a little. "Not bad, both fit ya pretty well," he grinned setting a hand on his chin as though to make himself out to be a better planner or rather have better eyesight than he really did. Jack smirked a little and even laughed. "My girl can wear anything and get away with it," he replied stepping sideways and wrapping one arm around Vicki. Okita blinked at the term before smiling a little. Ah, it was a bit different a partnership than he had thought, heh. The sounds of movement caught Okita's ears, and as he turned his head, he smirked. "Sounds like Amy's makin' some stuff... come on we'll go sit in one of the rooms," he said before making a hand gesture and starting further into the house again. Finally stopping in a room with a low table and various pillows around it, Okita sat down and leaned on the table easily.

Vicki smiled slightly when Okita commented on their attire and removed the towel from her head. Her hair was as dry as it was going to get for the time being...besides that it was starting to grow cold from absorbing so much water. Setting the towel near where she'd seen Jack's wet towels Vicki smiled all the more when she heard Jack's comment and felt the arm wrap around her. It felt...good to hear him call her 'his girl'... Leaning slightly against Jack, Vicki was enjoying being like this when Okita said something about going into one of the other rooms. Looking up at Jack, Vicki reluctantly pulled away from him before taking hold of Jack's hand and following Okita. Sitting on a nearby pillow, Vicki waited until Jack sat down before leaning against him slightly. By this time Chizuru had finished making the tea and carried a tray out to the table along with some small snacks to go along with the tea. "I thought that you might want something warm to drink after being out in that storm,"Chizuru said in a kind voice before setting the tray down in the center of the table and serving everyone tea first before sitting next to Okita, her own cup in hand.

Sitting down on the plush pillow next to Victoria, Jack felt her lean on him and ended up rolling her hand over and tracing over her palm with his fingers. He wanted to get to know every inch of her... every small crevice.. every hair... Jack's thoughts were snapped away when Amy brought in the tea and poured it. Okita, who couldn't help but blink and stare a little at the motions of Vicki and Jack, quickly took to looking at Amy instead as she had come back and sat next to him. Picking up his tea first, the brown haired man sipped it before grinning. "Amy always makes the best tea," he commented. Jack raised an eyebrow but took the tea in front of himself and sipped it. Hey it wasn't too bad at all...

Vicki smiled slightly as Jack took her hand. The small motion of him rubbing her hand felt good...in some ways it just felt...right. When Amy served her tea Vicki blinked before taking the cup with her free hand and sipping it. The warmth that spread through her felt so good...humming softly, Vicki smiled and looked at Amy. "This is good..."Vicki said quietly before taking another sip.
Amy smiled and nodded her thanks to Vicki at the compliment. Hearing Okita's words, Amy blushed slightly...she didn't think that her tea was that great but if he thought so... Seeing Jack and Vicki together brought a twinge of jealousy to Amy...they reminded her of how happy her brothers were with their prospective wives. This of course only served to remind her that she was still single and-... right that didn't matter anyway...

Jack continued to take sips of his tea before finally setting it down again. "We'll be out of your hair as soon as the storm clears," he said with a cheesy grin. Okita just blinked in confusion. The man wasn't in his hair, but after a second or two, he assumed it was just some sort of English slang and laughed a little. "So you said you were a trader, yes?" Okita asked more or less picking up the conversation that had been dropped a minute or two ago.
