"I'm hungry," Venus complained in a mumble as she watched several fish cook over their campfire. "You know, we haven't eaten in a while, Awst? How have the guys been getting food while we've been starving?"
"I..don't..know...but-- if I don't get food soon then I'm gonna die ...and I'm taking my hostages with me!!"she growled back darting evil glances at the bishies that were hers.
Venus blinked. "Riiiight. You're one odd little bugger. Has anyone ever told you that?"
"Fuck you beotch!!!"Awst was rather cranky when Miroku sat down beside her and pulled off a portion of his food for her."Yea!" she wrapped her arms around his neck and squeezed him warmly.
Miroku grinned and embraced her back.
The other teenager rolled her eyes and took one of the fish off of the fire. She studied it carefully before taking a bite. "Cooked to perfection!" she said with a grin. "You know, somehow or another, we got a bit of mail this morning. I found it infront of our tent."
Awst gulped down the portion Miroku gave her and took a bite out of her own fish."How the hell?Nevermind that was a retorical question." She then noticed Miroku still had his arm around her waist. She ignored it and continued,"well,anyway whose it from?''
"It said on the package, 'CotA'. And this is what she sent." From her pockets Venus pulled out two small pouches and a frying pan. She held up the frying pan. "She called this one, the 'Frying Pan of Doom'. The stuff in this pink pouch--" She looked up to see Awst slapping Miroku and saying something about hentai monks. She blanched. "Okaaaaay. So, the stuff in the pink pouch is bubblegum balls, and the stuff in the brown pouch is chain seeds. She also left instructions for 'em. Do they sound like fun?"
"Yes they do...can I try them out on Hiei?" Awst rubbed her hands together menacingly with a smirk on her face.
Venus thought for a moment as she watched Miroku edge away from his captor, suddenly fearful of many, many beatings. "Sure why not?"
"Your joking?I haven't tried to kill you bakas for an hour now and your still going to do ...stuff..." Hiei muttered as he seen Kurama back away.He thought of doing the same.
Venus handed Awst the Frying Pan of Doom and chain seeds. "Do your worst, my dearest comrade. He's been nothing more than a pain in the ass ever since you caught him."
"But hes a cute pain in the ass!"Awst said happily stepping towards Hiei watching his eyes dialate.
"Fuck! Keep away from me you crazed fangirl! Back off!!!" Knowing that if he dared actually harm Awst that he would be shocked nearly to death by the shock flies, he did the one thing he could do in that situation. He just jumped away each time she got within twenty feet of him.
Awst eventually got smart and chucked a chain seed at him knowing he would dodge she tossed another right after nailing Hiei on the forhead. The tiny seed errupted into chains and consumed Hiei in unbreakable steel. Awst took that as her cue to torture him with the frying pan.
Later...
Awst sat and chatted with Koga,Miroku, and Vash as Hiei laid on the ground knocked out with knots on his head.
Kurama poked Hiei with a stick and winced. "Poor person. He is going to be alright, isn't he, Venus?"
Venus glanced at Hiei. "Yeah, he should turn out just fine. He'll have one hell of a headache later this evening, but he'll live. So, what ya wanna do? We don't have to go after Sanosuke 'til tonight."
Awst smiled,"Big, tall, muscley guy..."Awst never finished her sentence instead she sat and drooled as the bishies jealously rolled their eyes.
Venus raised an eyebrow as Wolfwood plopped down beside her and wrapped an arm around her shoulders. "Well, I don't know what red here could do, but if we could just find a private spot--" his words were cut short as a rock the size of a baseball collided with his head. He blacked out and fell on his back with a case of the unconscious swirly eyes.
From his spot near the tent Sesshomaru snickered evilly. Vash tried to explain his friend's attacker as a "squirrel getting back at mankind for destroying its home." At that comment the rest of the group, except Sesshomaru, began to search the trees for the assailant.
Awst eventually pinned Vash and knowing he knew who the 'squirrel' was forced him to say who. When informed she thought and then busted out laughing."More like a dog being territorial... wouldn't you say?"she glanced at Sesshomaru.
Another baseball rock hit Awst square in the head. She fell back and landed on Hiei , waking him up in the process."What do you want you crack whore?"
Awst glared at Hiei and then called him a whoremonger.(A/N: a whoremonger is an old term for man whore...monger means seller..whore means...DUH! Just to inform!;) buh bye) He blinked then realized what she meant."Bitch,get off me!"He mumbled.
Another rock slammed into Awst's already bruised head, rendering her unconscious and unable to remove herself from Hiei.
Hiei sweatdropped and growled,"who did that?!"
Sesshomaru shruged. "It wasn't me this time." And he lerked his head meaningfully at Wolfwood, who had just woken up.
Hiei realized Awst had a death grip on him so he had to wake her up....no such luck.
Being the sweet little thing that she is, Venus helped 'em out. "Hey, Awst...GRILLED STUFFED BURRITO!!!"
"WOO HOO!!Where is it??!!!"Awst perked up immediatly digging her hands into Hiei's stomach knocking the breathe out of him. She looked around happily then became dissapointed realizing the trick."Not fair!Venus why do you torture me so?"Awst put a hurt look on her face with a mocking voice.
She grinned and laughed evilly before stopping suddenly. "You were crushing Hiei's arm. Speaking of which, are you gonna be okay, short one?"
"Go fuck yourself stupid one!"
Venus just smiled. "Well, I love you, too, gay one. Sesshomaru?"
WHACK!!!
A rock hit Hiei barely missing Awst in the process who was still sitting on Hiei.
Awst felt sorry for Hiei and tossed the rock back."Venus shouldn't have called him short!Hes taller than me..and I know how it feels to be called short so don't tease him...or me." she then dodged a rock from Sesshomaru. Hiei held back a grin as he watched Awst stick up for him,even though it wasn't needed and he really didn't want her to either..or atleast he thought he didn't.
Awst stood up and brushed herself off.She smiled at Hiei and walked off into the bushes. Sesshomaru tossed another rock at her retreating figure. It made it half way and was knocked down out of the air. Everyone had been been watching the rock soar and when it was knocked down they were all confused until they glanced around and seen Hiei tossing a rock up in the air and catching it. Sesshomaru sighed and gave up his rock tossing.
Koga looked up at the sky and gave Venus a look. "It's kinda dark, ya know. Aren't ya afraid she's gonna get herself lost out there?"
Venus tilted her head and thought for a moment. "Ya, she probably will, but we'll find her again eventually."
~~
Awst had intended to take a short walk but her blonde brain decided to get her lost. She looked around with obvious worry.'Where am I?' she thought then seen light of a town to her left and walked towards it like a bug flying into a bug zapper unaware of the upcoming danger... only she wasn't fried she just stepped into a deep hole and swore rather loudly as she sprained her ankle.'Damn it!!I was almost to the town too!!Ugh,I don't think I can walk!' She then tried to stand but instead yelped and fell to the ground.
She heard a rustle in the brush a couple feet away and seen a child with black hair with a tan and recognized him as Yahiko. Then behind him came the tall muscular form of Sanosuke. 'What a coinsidence! ' Awst thought then said to them. "Hey, can you help me...I hurt my ankle and can't walk."
"Told ya' I heard a girl scream ,Sano!" Yahiko teased.
"Shut up shorty..sure we can help you out!" Sanosuke checked Awst out with obvious delight.
"Great!"she smiled sweetly and tried to stand.Only to loose her balance and stumble forward to be caught by Sanosuke.
"Do you want me to carry you?...It doesn't look like you're a graceful person.." Sanosuke teased as he lifted her off the ground in his arms.
"Thanks," she replied softly. She was very glad it was dark because she could feel herself blushing. ' This is soo weird whats the luck of me being carried by Sanosuke like a bride out of the woods? '
They arrived at the dojo and she watched as Kenshin's face spread into a questioning look. "Who is she?" he asked as Sanosuke sat Awst down and lifted her foot to examine it.Awst felt herself blush a little again as he rubbed her swolen ankle to see if it was broken.
"I don't know yet...whats your name?" Sanosuke replied as Kenshin smiled sweetly at Awst.
"I'm Awst...who are you?" she replied already knowing the answer.
"My name is Kenshin Himora. Ms. Koaru, the owner of this dojo, is out right now. Did you find yourself lost, Awst?"
"Uhh..yeah I'm not from here so I sorta did...get lost."
Kenshin smiled and nodded in understanding. "Well, if you need lodgings for the evening I'm sure Koaru would not mind having company. What do you think, Sanosuke?"
"I know I don't mind!" he grinned and shrugged his shoulders.
Awst smiled.' Well, he obviously likes me. So it shouldn't be hard to catch him!' "Good! Then where shall I sleep?" Awst knew what came to Sanosuke's mind but didn't know what he would say.
Yahiko grinned. "Weeell, if ya don't want to sleep with Sano you could always cuddle with me!"
Awst blanched. "Uhh...hehehe..are you like even over 10? I think I'll sleep with Sano.."Awst then realized a grin spread across Sano's and Yahiko's face.She then realized the way Yahiko meant it."Ack! you hentai little twurp!You tricked me!"
Yahiko just laughed ans stuck his tongue out at her. "Just try and catch me for it, eh!" and he took off into the dojo, taunting her from afar.
She stood up putting her weight on the unharmed foot and went to limp off but was stopped by Sanosuke. "Let him run for a while then catch him in the morning. I do it all the time."
Kenshin just sighed and walked away. He knew exactly what Sano might try to do that evening. But he wondered what Awst's reaction would be. Kenshin stopped and thought for a moment. 'Ms. Awst is most definately strange, that she is. I have barely known her for five minutes, but I can tell by the look in her eyes that she is a very strange and disturbed child...Sano and Awst will get along very well, that they will.' and he continued on his way to his room.
"So, am I sleeping in your room tonight?" Awst asked as she sat down beside Sanosuke.
"I'm guessing so. We don't have any extra rooms here, so you're stuck with me. Hope ya don't mind." And he scooped her up into his arms.
Awst felt her face redden. She wasn't use to being carried and she had to admit she liked it and wanted to squeal when Sanosuke lifted her up.
~*~
The next morning brought the smells of a delicious breakfast to the camp of the captives. Believe it or not, Venus could be a pretty good cook when forced to. Koga was by her side being very fidgety and driving her nearly off the wall with his constant inquiries of Awst. The teen finally took a bubblegun ball and smashed it against his face, instantly enveloping him in a prison of dried up gum.
"Finally some peace!"Venus shouted as she continued to season some fish by the fire.
Sesshomaru stumbled out of the tent and walked over to sit by Venus. His hair was a mess and he obviously hadn't gotten to sleep that night. Venus raised an eyebrow. He looked like he was about to fall asleep right where he was. "Are you okay?" she asked with genuine worry. "You look, well, you definately don't look dignified right about now.
He mumbled some form of obscenity and replied, "When Hiei gets revenge, he gets revenge."
Venus was almost afraid to ask, but being the curious little kitty that she was--"What did he do to you!?"
Sesshomaru visibly twitched. "...Bubblegum balls..." He held up his fur boa. It was ruined beyond all recognition, now just a long wad of pink gum. "It's in my hair, too."
Venus dropped the frying pan that was in her hand and gasped. She was soooo going to kick Hiei's ass on sooo many levels. Suddenly feeling very sorry for the inuyoukai, she wrapped her arms around him and tried to calm his nerves. Somehow, Hiei had done permanent psycological damage. Venus kissed Sesshomaru's cheek reassuringly. "Don't worry, Hiei's gonna get his. Now, let's do something about that stuff in your hair..."
Hiei walked out of his tent as Venus and Sesshomaru left and he smirked as Miroku informed him of what happened. " Well, I can't wait for the next time he sees gum...can you?"Hiei joked with the other bishies.
"That will be something to tell Inuyasha."Miroku said to Koga.
"Feh, I don't much like that puppy but I agree!"
Wolfwood shook his head and looked over at Vash. "I kind feel sorry for him...We won't tease him that much when he gets back, eh, Vash?"
"Nah, that thing looked really expensive..and to be ruined by gum!He was really attatched to it apperently...wheres Awst? Is she back yet?" Vash replied .
Wolfwood was about to answer when something moved in the pile of blankets on the floor of the tent. The two gunmen shrugged before moving aside the blankets. Kurama lay sprawled out and sound asleep, but his hair seemed to be perfectly brushed somehow and his clothes unwrinkled. "How'd he do that?" Wolfwood muttered to Vash as he buried Kurama in the pile of blankets.
Vash shrugged and noticed Koga was fidgeting."Whats wrong with you?"
"You reminded me Awst is still missing..she could be hurt..or not hurt just lost..you all know how stupid she is sometimes." Koga replied.
"Here comes Venus and Sesshomaru..without any gum in sight..??" Miroku replied.
Indeed, Venus had managed to get all the gum off of his fur boa and out of his hair, but it came with one small price: he was drenched in ice cold water and was shivering uncontrollably.
Venus smiled apollogetically. "I really am sorry, Fluffy, but there was no way around it."
"You could have warned me first," he complained barely in a mumble.
"But you wouldn't have done it had I warned you that the trail led to a drop off into a creek."
"I'm cold, and I'm wet, and I'm pissed off."
She got a blanket and a battery powered drier out of nowhere. "Here's one way to get warm." and before he could protest Venus had tackled him and had the drier on "high".
Meanwhile...
Awst woke up next to Sano. They hadn't done anything to Sanosuke's dissapointment. She went to rise but Sanosuke had an arm around her. She plopped back down and buried her face into his chest sleepily. He mummbled and sqeezed her tighter. She didn't object but instead pretended to be asleep. She felt his eyes peering at her and wanted to know what he would do or say. She felt him lean his face towards her own. Still unsure what he was going to do she kept her eyes shut and her mouth slightly opened to breath easily. It wasn't until it happened she realized what he was going to do. Her eyes shot open as he pressed his mouth to hers. She blinked and gazed into his eyes as he realized she had awoken. He pulled away and grinned. "I'm busted..." he grinned.
"Yes,you are!" Awst laughed and pulled out of his arms. "Whats for breakfast?"
He shrugged. "Whatever Missie or Kenshin's cookin' " and he sat up, stretching his arms. "I slept well. Your ankle any better?"
"Umm...Icould use some Tylen-- never mind... yeah I'm great!" she caught herself in mid-sentence.' That was stupid,Awst! Tylenol isn't anywhere near being invented!' She stood up and yawned.Deciding to be carried she continued."Its kinda weak though.."
She didn't have to say another word. Sanosuke turned and she jumped onto his back.She grinned as they walked out with her riding on his shoulders.
Ms. Koaru just happened to be walking down the hall at the time. She looked up at Sanosuke with a stern look. "Sano, who is this? I told you not to be bringing your girlfriends here!"
"Shes not my girlfriend..."
"Well that's even worse! Sleeping with a young woman that you don't even know! How could you, Sanosuke!?"
"I ..didn't sleep with her just slept with her...that made no sense did it?"
"No it didn't you pathetic baka, but I got the point. If she's not your girlfriend or a, well, you know, then who is she?"
Awst not liking being talked about in third person butted in,"I'm Awst, I was traveling with friends when I got lost and hurt my ankle. Sano and Yahiko found me and Kenshin said you wouldn't mind me being here for a night."
Koaru thought for a moment, as though not trusting her words, but finally sighed. "Alright then, I apollogize. But I always have my suspicions of Sano's behavior. Sometimes I really do wish that he would just get abducted or something."
"I think hes sweet...Do you want me to take him off your hands?" Awst questioned.
Koaru smiled. She was starting to like this chick. "If you can convince him to leave, please do so. Kenshin might get upset, but he'll get over it." and she walked off.
Awst grinned,"Would you go for that,Sano?"
He gave Koaru's retreating form a glare before looking at her and smiling. "Wouldn't mind that at all! Anyway, shouldn't we be looking for your friends?"
'Easy , breezy , gullible , bishy boy!' Awst thought happily."Yeah lets go find them!"
He sat her down and she lead him by the hand in the direction she thought the camp site was.
Later...
Awst and Sanosuke finally found the camp.The bishies and Venus looked up and Koga jumped to his feet. "Where were you!?"he inquired then realized Sanosuke."Ohh thats where you were getting anot--"he was cutt off by Venus.
Venus stepped on his foot and looked up from attempting to dry Sesshomaru's fur boa. "Hello, Awst! We got kinda worried about you. Who's your friend?"
"His name is Sanosuke!He helped me out so be nice!"she shot the bishies a glare of warning gripping Sano's hand."Anyway...Venus would you do the honors?"
"Of course!" and she opened the portal with a wink of her eye. "Welcome to our little group, Sano. Heheheh."
Sanosuke had no time to react as he was pulled through the portal by Awst. The others quickly followed. Just as Venus stepped through, the portal closed, and Sanosuke wouldn't be seeing home again for quite some time...
~*~
Venus and the gang looked around. For once, they had no earthly idea where they were, not counting the Hamtaro incident. The teen looked over at her friend for an explanation. "The hell?"
"I'm a cluless little girl....where are we?Am I lost again??NOOO!!!!"Awst whined then turned to Sano who was confused."Maybe I should explain ..." Awst began to explain to Sano.

Yahiko just laughed ans stuck his tongue out at her. "Just try and catch me for it, eh!" and he took off into the dojo, taunting her from afar.
She stood up putting her weight on the unharmed foot and went to limp off but was stopped by Sanosuke. "Let him run for a while then catch him in the morning. I do it all the time."
Kenshin just sighed and walked away. He knew exactly what Sano might try to do that evening. But he wondered what Awst's reaction would be. Kenshin stopped and thought for a moment. 'Ms. Awst is most definately strange, that she is. I have barely known her for five minutes, but I can tell by the look in her eyes that she is a very strange and disturbed child...Sano and Awst will get along very well, that they will.' and he continued on his way to his room.
"So, am I sleeping in your room tonight?" Awst asked as she sat down beside Sanosuke.
"I'm guessing so. We don't have any extra rooms here, so you're stuck with me. Hope ya don't mind." And he scooped her up into his arms.
Awst felt her face redden. She wasn't use to being carried and she had to admit she liked it and wanted to squeal when Sanosuke lifted her up.

The next morning brought the smells of a delicious breakfast to the camp of the captives. Believe it or not, Venus could be a pretty good cook when forced to. Koga was by her side being very fidgety and driving her nearly off the wall with his constant inquiries of Awst. The teen finally took a bubblegun ball and smashed it against his face, instantly enveloping him in a prison of dried up gum.
"Finally some peace!"Venus shouted as she continued to season some fish by the fire.
Sesshomaru stumbled out of the tent and walked over to sit by Venus. His hair was a mess and he obviously hadn't gotten to sleep that night. Venus raised an eyebrow. He looked like he was about to fall asleep right where he was. "Are you okay?" she asked with genuine worry. "You look, well, you definately don't look dignified right about now.
He mumbled some form of obscenity and replied, "When Hiei gets revenge, he gets revenge."
Venus was almost afraid to ask, but being the curious little kitty that she was--"What did he do to you!?"
Sesshomaru visibly twitched. "...Bubblegum balls..." He held up his fur boa. It was ruined beyond all recognition, now just a long wad of pink gum. "It's in my hair, too."
Venus dropped the frying pan that was in her hand and gasped. She was soooo going to kick Hiei's ass on sooo many levels. Suddenly feeling very sorry for the inuyoukai, she wrapped her arms around him and tried to calm his nerves. Somehow, Hiei had done permanent psycological damage. Venus kissed Sesshomaru's cheek reassuringly. "Don't worry, Hiei's gonna get his. Now, let's do something about that stuff in your hair..."
Hiei walked out of his tent as Venus and Sesshomaru left and he smirked as Miroku informed him of what happened. " Well, I can't wait for the next time he sees gum...can you?"Hiei joked with the other bishies.
"That will be something to tell Inuyasha."Miroku said to Koga.
"Feh, I don't much like that puppy but I agree!"
Wolfwood shook his head and looked over at Vash. "I kind feel sorry for him...We won't tease him that much when he gets back, eh, Vash?"
"Nah, that thing looked really expensive..and to be ruined by gum!He was really attatched to it apperently...wheres Awst? Is she back yet?" Vash replied .
Wolfwood was about to answer when something moved in the pile of blankets on the floor of the tent. The two gunmen shrugged before moving aside the blankets. Kurama lay sprawled out and sound asleep, but his hair seemed to be perfectly brushed somehow and his clothes unwrinkled. "How'd he do that?" Wolfwood muttered to Vash as he buried Kurama in the pile of blankets.
Vash shrugged and noticed Koga was fidgeting."Whats wrong with you?"
"You reminded me Awst is still missing..she could be hurt..or not hurt just lost..you all know how stupid she is sometimes." Koga replied.
"Here comes Venus and Sesshomaru..without any gum in sight..??" Miroku replied.
Indeed, Venus had managed to get all the gum off of his fur boa and out of his hair, but it came with one small price: he was drenched in ice cold water and was shivering uncontrollably.
Venus smiled apollogetically. "I really am sorry, Fluffy, but there was no way around it."
"You could have warned me first," he complained barely in a mumble.
"But you wouldn't have done it had I warned you that the trail led to a drop off into a creek."
"I'm cold, and I'm wet, and I'm pissed off."
She got a blanket and a battery powered drier out of nowhere. "Here's one way to get warm." and before he could protest Venus had tackled him and had the drier on "high".
Meanwhile...
Awst woke up next to Sano. They hadn't done anything to Sanosuke's dissapointment. She went to rise but Sanosuke had an arm around her. She plopped back down and buried her face into his chest sleepily. He mummbled and sqeezed her tighter. She didn't object but instead pretended to be asleep. She felt his eyes peering at her and wanted to know what he would do or say. She felt him lean his face towards her own. Still unsure what he was going to do she kept her eyes shut and her mouth slightly opened to breath easily. It wasn't until it happened she realized what he was going to do. Her eyes shot open as he pressed his mouth to hers. She blinked and gazed into his eyes as he realized she had awoken. He pulled away and grinned. "I'm busted..." he grinned.
"Yes,you are!" Awst laughed and pulled out of his arms. "Whats for breakfast?"
He shrugged. "Whatever Missie or Kenshin's cookin' " and he sat up, stretching his arms. "I slept well. Your ankle any better?"
"Umm...Icould use some Tylen-- never mind... yeah I'm great!" she caught herself in mid-sentence.' That was stupid,Awst! Tylenol isn't anywhere near being invented!' She stood up and yawned.Deciding to be carried she continued."Its kinda weak though.."
She didn't have to say another word. Sanosuke turned and she jumped onto his back.She grinned as they walked out with her riding on his shoulders.
Ms. Koaru just happened to be walking down the hall at the time. She looked up at Sanosuke with a stern look. "Sano, who is this? I told you not to be bringing your girlfriends here!"
"Shes not my girlfriend..."
"Well that's even worse! Sleeping with a young woman that you don't even know! How could you, Sanosuke!?"
"I ..didn't sleep with her just slept with her...that made no sense did it?"
"No it didn't you pathetic baka, but I got the point. If she's not your girlfriend or a, well, you know, then who is she?"
Awst not liking being talked about in third person butted in,"I'm Awst, I was traveling with friends when I got lost and hurt my ankle. Sano and Yahiko found me and Kenshin said you wouldn't mind me being here for a night."
Koaru thought for a moment, as though not trusting her words, but finally sighed. "Alright then, I apollogize. But I always have my suspicions of Sano's behavior. Sometimes I really do wish that he would just get abducted or something."
"I think hes sweet...Do you want me to take him off your hands?" Awst questioned.
Koaru smiled. She was starting to like this chick. "If you can convince him to leave, please do so. Kenshin might get upset, but he'll get over it." and she walked off.
Awst grinned,"Would you go for that,Sano?"
He gave Koaru's retreating form a glare before looking at her and smiling. "Wouldn't mind that at all! Anyway, shouldn't we be looking for your friends?"
'Easy , breezy , gullible , bishy boy!' Awst thought happily."Yeah lets go find them!"
He sat her down and she lead him by the hand in the direction she thought the camp site was.
Later...
Awst and Sanosuke finally found the camp.The bishies and Venus looked up and Koga jumped to his feet. "Where were you!?"he inquired then realized Sanosuke."Ohh thats where you were getting anot--"he was cutt off by Venus.
Venus stepped on his foot and looked up from attempting to dry Sesshomaru's fur boa. "Hello, Awst! We got kinda worried about you. Who's your friend?"
"His name is Sanosuke!He helped me out so be nice!"she shot the bishies a glare of warning gripping Sano's hand."Anyway...Venus would you do the honors?"
"Of course!" and she opened the portal with a wink of her eye. "Welcome to our little group, Sano. Heheheh."
Sanosuke had no time to react as he was pulled through the portal by Awst. The others quickly followed. Just as Venus stepped through, the portal closed, and Sanosuke wouldn't be seeing home again for quite some time...
~*~
Venus and the gang looked around. For once, they had no earthly idea where they were, not counting the Hamtaro incident. The teen looked over at her friend for an explanation. "The hell?"
"I'm a cluless little girl....where are we?Am I lost again??NOOO!!!!"Awst whined then turned to Sano who was confused."Maybe I should explain ..." Awst began to explain to Sano.
