Dal'Sheed enters The Spice Rack, the inviting smell of food drawing him in. Perhaps he would find someone there. He hailed Steiner while waiving his hand.
Tugging on the reis to the left, Loki steered the dragon towards the direction of the den, then pulled the reins back. Not fully understanding the command, Fafnir descended and landed infront of the den, which happened to be exactly what Loki intended. "Well, that was relatively sucsessful." he remarked climbing down. After Rita climbed down too, Loki went to remove the reins and saddle and brought these inside. Rita followed, and sat down to write in her notebook.
Bertie looked at the officer, "Oh, that's normal, I'll be off now." he said, walking off, leaving the crater where it was while the guard stood dazed. Eventually, he reaches The Spice Rack, and sits down.[hr]
Vagabond sighs, and enters the tunnel.
Jessica had locked herself in the bathroom of Ness' room at the Spice Rack. The sound of the bath faucet running could be heard (Assuming they don't just use magic water-generating crystals or something like that). Jessica's clothes were laid out on the sofa.

Nybeth was in his cave once again, and once again a foul odor was exuding from the mouth of the cave.
Ness slowly rose up off of the bed and made sure to get out quietly to not disturb Echo and Holly. She noticed the sound of water running and Jess' clothes laid out on the couch. She sat down near the foot of the bed and digistructed Four's book to start reading. "Good morning, Jessica." Ness called out as she started reading.
From the bathroom came a rather startled sounding "Eep!" and the sound of something almost being knocked over. The sound of running water stopped, and shortly after Jessica called through the door, "Did I wake you up? I'm sorry if I did. Could you hand me my clothes? I wasn't expecting to have to take this long..."
Black was busy looking around the College. "This place is magnificence" she mused as she looked at the great building work. "Now which way to the library?" She muttered as walked around and looked around a bit.
[hr]
Holly was still sleeping, snoring slightly.
Ness winces at the sound of Jessica's yelp and gets up to gather her clothes, leaving the book facedown for the moment. She knocks on the bathroom door once she has the clothes in hand. "I was already waking up Jessica, no need to be sorry. And are you alright? That sounded like that might've hurt..."
"Yeah, I'm fine. Just almost tripped on a sponge." Jessica opened the door by a crack and reached out with her left arm. After grabbing her clothes she pulled them into the bathroom with her and quickly shut the door again. A few minutes later she came out after having dressed herself. "There we go. Should we see about getting a move on now?"
Ness looked toward the dressed Jess and nodded. "The more quickly this gets done, the better." She quickly took the book and digitized it back in before bringing her PDA back out of it. Stashing it into her pocket, she took a look at both Echo and Holly sleeping. "I think we're going to need someone to watch the girls while we're off finding Tao..."

Yukino yawned as she hopped down from the roof of the Main Tower and landed silently on the floor. She stretched a bit as she landed before looking around a bit.
Jessica started scratching the back of her neck. "Yeah, bringing children along while we go searching around for a dangerous criminal doesn't sound like a good idea at all." She paused to think for several moments. "Do we even know anyone we can trust with children here?" She said, drawing a blank in her brainstorming.
Ness put her hand up to her chin for a moment. "Eh.... The only person I would trust with children is Mr. Logan, but he seems to have his own agenda... Other than him... maybe Rex..... No... never mind." She finally sighed a bit, defeated.
@Dot: If only Blair was around to help Rex out...
Or maybe Four and Mia. They've got an excellent track record: only one child out of five has gone missing, one died on Four's watch and only one went genocidally insane. That's probably better than most clinically insane drug addict parents.
@Trilby: Considering none of them died from being malnourished or just being stillborn, you're honestly probably right.
@Outis: Server issues for the past hour, so jack shit.
"I was going to suggest leaving them at Winterhorn, since that place seemed pretty safe and they seemed to like it there, but I can't imagine anyone there actually accepting looking after children." Jessica gave off her own defeated sigh. "Are you sure we can't get Rex to help us out?"
