Welcome to Gaia! ::

Genya could understand English, so he could understand Demios. But still, the newcomer scared him. Genya tried to get away even when Demios healed him because he didn't know what Demios was doing. However, he wasn't so clueless that he didn't feel his wounds heal and the thugs heal. Genya's eyes widened again. While Genya was familiar with Owls, Benkei was the only one in his family that was an Owl. The Japanese boy stopped struggling as he stared at Demios's hand. He didn't run.

However, suddenly, some guy appeared in a flash. Genya almost started freaking out again. Genya, of course, had absolutely NO idea what Anderson was talking about. Heck, he didn't even know who Anderson was or Demios for that matter. They were both Owls. That was ridiculously obvious. What sort of Owls? Genya was now trying to analyze them out of curiosity.

Demios smiled once he got the kid calmed down, however, once Anderson appeared he noticed Genya getting a bit scared again. He decided it was a good idea to introduce everyone. "Don't freak out again my name is Demios and this is a friend of mine Anderson" He said. He had yet to learn the boys name. He then looked at Anderson "Way to nearly scare him to death" He said. He then sighed "Roulin is alive thanks to Aimee and I guess partly thanks to Will, I still don't trust him though, he's never helped before" He said. He then looked at Genya "perhaps I should get you some place safer and maybe get you something to eat, my ability may have allowed me to heal you but if you don't get nourishment you could go into shock from the quick recovery" He said.

Demios smiled as Genya started talking he was glad to see they hadn't scared him too bad. "Nice to meet you Genya, sorry for nearly scaring you to death, I tend to forget not everyone is used to owls" He said. He then her Genya say Will-san "You know Will?" He asked a bit surprised, he then realised it could be a coincidence but then again how often was there a Will in japan. He then herd Genya's offer "Sounds fun, besides I'm kind of lost anyway and if we get somewhere I recognise I might be able to find everyone" He said cheerfully. He then paused for a moment "Genya, what had you so distracted?" He asked recalling he hadn't noticed the guys originally.

Demios listened to Genya and let out a small laugh as he pronounced their names he had forgotten that people in Japan didn't typically have english as their first language. He then herd about Will "Maybe theres a connection" He said to himself. As he listened to Genya talk it wasn't long until he was entirely lost "Do all people in japan know this stuff?" He asked himself quietly. After a while he just smiled glad to know how passionate Genya was about the stuff he did. "I hate to tell you this but you lost me a while ago" He said to him as they reached the campus "But you must really love the stuff you do if you can talk about it so passionately, in times like these you don't see a lot of passion in people" He said.

Genya didn't really respond much to Anderson since he didn't know what Anderson and Demios were speaking on to begin with. He did nod at the strange eyes response though. That was entirely possible. There were all types of Owls in the world. The mention of Satan reminded him of some of the foreign students because some of them followed some form of Christianity that said Satan was some evil demon guy. Of course, Genya had no idea that the very Will that were talking about was his next door neighbor, the Satan Owl that Benkei had found out about only months before in Paris.

Genya blinked at Demios and Anderson's responses to his long winded highly technical monologue about whatever topic Genya had been speaking on before. Their responses were similar to Benkei's, and Genya finally understood what that meant. "Oh, heheh? Sorry. I get really excited about that kind of stuff, and I forget that not everyone studies this stuff so they don't know the terms..." At Anderson's comment about European universities, Genya just chirped, "It's college!". Genya had not been to Europe before though he had looked at some of the college websites while he was considering studying abroad.

The University of Tokyo had modern state of the art buildings (in addition to some historical buildings and sites). The campus they were on had a main cafeteria that met the standards. It was modern, clean, and had English and Japanese names for the items on the menu. The cafeteria offered many types of food from different cultures. Not the super fancy fine dining types of food, but food nevertheless. "So.... what do you want?"

((There are some photoes of the cafeteria at the Komaba campus of Todai here. I found it on a Google search.

Edit: We don't have to assume it's the Komaba campus that they actually are on. I'm not specifying so we can make up stuff and be vague.))

((I'm going to stop writing Anderson as Ahndeersung. Genya can't get the name straight. Same with Deemeeohs with Demios. You get the idea.))

Genya looked at Demios with an "oh" on his face. Maybe it was because of the war. Genya had no idea what Demios and Anderson had been through. Compared to them, he really had a normal life, but he didn't know that. "Umm, well, now you're in college in Japan in one of the world's best!" Genya declared cheerfully. Education and scholarly studies was Genya's life. From the looks of Anderson and Demios and how they reacted, he was guessing they weren't from the country.

Benkei's sixteen year old brother shrugged when Demios asked him how long he had been "here." "I'm in my second year, about to go into my third year," he replied. "Well, I know some Owls, but no one fights or ..uh... does what you did. My brother, he's an Owl, and he just defends mostly. Owls don't display their abilities too openly all the time. We all get along."

Burgers and milkshakes weren't entirely the same in Japan compared to the Western world. "Western hamburgers" were associated mainly with McDonalds. Japan had its own local chain burger joints that had burgers such as teriyaki burgers, katsu burgers, shrimp burgers, "Rice Burger", and the "Takumi" Burger, and the ingredients used were much fresher than McDonalds. Milkshake weren't as thick as their Western counterparts either, and of course, there were a variety of flavors....even including pancake flavor. The stall that Genya took Anderson and Demios to did not have McDonalds. "Burger and milkshake here. What kind? Anderson, what do you want?"

((I apologize for the wait. Owen's posts are just difficult for me to come up with.))

(FP and UNS: Owen and Anya)

Owen chuckled a little when he heard what Raven said about his choice of form as Godzilla. "Hey. Had to break you guys out quickly." he replied. But then, Lucien appeared a few yards away in front of his massive Godzilla face. Owen stopped moving as fast as he could. He could tell Lucien was going to prepare an attack. "Hang on, Rae! Koj!" Owen told his friends before swiftly changing form into a more agile yet strong body of a dragon. In this form, he could hold on to Raven and Kojiro and still dodge more quickly anything that Lucien would throw at him. As he shifted, Owen dove downwards to avoid getting hit in the face by the hydrochloric acid Lucien had made. However, he wasn't quite fast enough and some of the acid hit the dragon's tail. The dragon winced in pain but Owen managed not to make a sound to alert Raven or Kojiro that he had been hit. Of course, he was going to feel that later in human form as a burn, but Owen ignored it and flew downwards, underneath Lucien.

The dragon then pulled back up and turned to hover in the air to watch Lucien. "So predictable, Lucien." Owen said aloud so that Lucien, Raven, and Kojiro would all hear. He knew that Raven and Kojiro would wonder why he knew the leader of the UNS, but there would be time to explain that later anyway. "I won't let you hurt my family!" With that, the dragon opened its jaws wide and shot a stream of fire towards Lucien.

While Lucien was confronting Owen in the air above, Anya was stuck down on the ground with Armand, Amaya, and Itachi. As soon as she saw the form of Godzilla, Anya instantly knew who it was. "Owen!?" she shouted, not caring if any of her friends heard her as she ran out after the giant monster.
