Welcome to Gaia! ::

She made her way onto the floor and was nearly crushed in the stampede. Damn, why did she have to be so short? A human knocked against her shoulder, and she tucked herself in, trying to take up as little space as possible. Hurry to the side, she found a bit of clear space to stand in. Man, she hoped the humans would just stay away from her. When did it get so crazy in the shop?

She looked around for Micail. He was way taller than she was, and she might be able to stand next to him and not get pummeled.

Nebi barely heard her name called over the teaming mass of humans, but she did see Micail looking for something. Since she was the only one here he knew, it had to be her. She raised her arm and waved at him. "Micail, I'm over here." Where did all these people come from?

One of the humans caught sight of her uniform and hurried up to her. "Where can I find a nerf gun? It's for my sweet little nephew." The human beamed at her.

Ah...She looked around and, thankfully, spotted them not too far away. "There they are. Right in aisle three." Nebi said with a smile.

"Less crowded? Do you see anywhere like that? Cause this store seems to be the definition of crowded." She said. She'd wanted that to come out rather angry, but every word that fell from her mouth was happy and chipper. She waved to the customer that had come up to Micail and smiled at the new one that had come up to her.

"I'm looking for some good sturdy shoes. Where is that? I figure it's better to ask than to wander about in this crowd." The newest human said, looking around.

Shoes? Did they even have shoes? Uh...crap. Nebi picked a random direction and pointed. "I believe they're over there, sir. Just after the next section." Man, she hoped she wasn't sending him off in the wrong direction.

She nodded frantically after Micail pulled her out of harms way. Being short wasn't horrible most time, but in this crowd? You'd think the horrible colors she was wearing would make her stand out enough not to run her over. "Yeah, staying her is a good plan." She said before they were overwhelmed with people again.

One asked for a toy; she sent them to the same aisle with the nerf gun. Another asked for some candy and she remembered where that was. The man who had asked for shoes stopped by to yell at her, but was pushed away by the fluctuating group of people.

Finally! Everyone was leaving. It had to be closing time then. Great, she could get paid and be on her way. Back to Halloween...

They weren't getting anything? "What...what about some pumpkin seeds? Not any of those either?" Really? Did humans really go through all this and not even get any seeds from it? Or those papers and disks? Well...that was kind of a gyp.

Slowly the scene around her faded and she opened her eyes to find herself back in the courtyard. Well, that had been...ugh. She rubbed at her eyes and sat up. She had this feeling of happiness flowing through her. She looked over at Micail. "Hey, you're back too? All's well that ends well, yeah?" She was going to be happy once her voice stopped sounding so freaking...happy. "How'd you like your first trip through a portal?"

Nebi twitched her ears in all different directions, happy that they were back and wanting to get the sensation of them gone out of her memory. "You only say that because you didn't go on Desu-chan's last field trip." She shuddered at the memory of the pink and the sparkles.

Then again, the explosion, stealing candy, and running for one's life was pretty fun. To be fair, aside from the pink and glitter and sparkles, it had been an awesome field trip. "We went to Valentines. You should go on the next one."

"Also, I think we should report this portal. Come on, I have a laptop in my room that we can send it on." She said, grinning down at Micail, ears twitching happily. She hoped the effects wore off soon.
