Amara looked at Cecilia and smiled. "Well I'm glad that you're adapting well. I wish I would have had a chance to adapt when I was pulled into it" she said pausing and then looking back at Cecilia as she took a drink of water. "I just noticed that we haven't really interacted with each other since we've been working together just wanted to get to know you a bit" Amara admitted.
She felt a slight kick as she looked up at Cecilia and smiled. "I felt a kick...." she said with a small grin. "I wonder what it is at times..." she said trailing off as she sighed. Her salad had arrived as she began to dig into the meal in front of her. Amara was starved...maybe it was the baby...she didn't know but she knew she had a void to fill...ASAP.
Amara paused for a moment and looked into Cecilia's eyes. "You really do like Roulin...I can tell" she said. She wasn't reading Cecilia's mind or anything, she just had female intuition. "How serious are you guys if you don't mind me asking" she said as she took another drink.
Sabrina took Timothy's words for what they were and finished off her glass of wine. Placing the delicate glass on a table, she stretched as began to blow into the winds in the form of cherry blossom petals. It wouldn't take long for her to find Timothy, but on her way she did begin to think on a few things. She really did like him...but they could never have a family could they? Sabrina may have been a herald but she was still a woman. As she descended downwards and reformed she stared at Timothy and smiled. "You're kind of well hidden" she said with a smile on her face. "So Japan...what made you come here?" she asked curiously.

Cecilia took a small lady-like sip from her wine allowing the red liquid to rest on her tongue so that her taste buds could savor it before she swallowed allowing it to slide down her throat and settle down warmly into her stomach. "Well I have been a little curious about you. I haven't met any Psions until just recently. It's a really interesting power." Cecilia's salad arrived. She began to eat, a little more slowly than Amara, but that was because she wasn't eating for two like the woman before her. It was on the tip of her tongue to ask Amara if she was worried if her powers would affect the growing baby inside of her, but she held it back. That would pose too many questions, questions that Cecilia did not want to answer. She was glad when the subject was changed. A light pink tinge brushed her azure cheeks. "Well, yes I do. I really like him a lot." The blush only deepened in response to the second half of Amara's question. "Well, we haven't been together for very long. I mean, we've only kissed here and there, but we haven't gone further than that." Cecilia wanted to go further, but there were two problems. One: Cecilia didn't know if Roulin was ready and Two: It seemed there hadn't been an opportunity just yet.

"I try to be." Timothy replied in the usual stoic tone. Even in her shadow, his slight grin was still evident. Acknowledging her fully, he lifted his eyes up to her and the strands of hair covering his left eye fell to the side. The Herald looked to be tired, but he was far from it. When Sabrina asked what made him travel to Japan of all places, Timothy looked past her and placed his hands on the table in contemplation. "Well, it's easy on the eyes. Not as soothing as Iceland. Something about the architecture here....what they've constructed with just metal. Almost as exotic as America." the Herald admitted to the green tinted woman. "That, and when I'm feeling a little human and get hungry, this restaurant does the trick. If you're up to it, you can join me for a meal Sabrina. Your choice." Thanks to Japan's Owl laws, Owls were able to do whatever they felt just like a regular human. When Sabrina entered, no one took it as a threat, nor did anyone run in terror. A quick glance up would give sight to at least two or three people flying to or from work.

Amara smiled at Cecilia. "I think you two are cute together...I hope that you two really work out" she said sincerely. She had been over Roulin and she was more than sure that he had been over Amara. Amara then remembered what Cecilia had said about her being a psion. "Yea...every ability I have, I read and learned about...luckily there are people who actually believe in the power of the mind...though I do admit it' sometimes a burden. The first thing people believe is that I'm in their head or something" she said finishing off her salad. "I haven't met another psychic like myself...I'm capable of multiple psionic abilities while others are only capable of one...two abilities at the most" she said to her. Soon Amara's lasagna was brought to her and she smiled.
Cutting into the lasagna she smiled at Cecilia and began to eat. "Please don't be shy around me Cecilia, I'm no one at all, I'm one of the most laid back people I know" she said with a half full mouth. Amara noticed that a few people started to stare at them. Glancing at them, the people turned their heads and Amara resumed her conversation with Cecilia.
Sabrina nodded. "I'd love to accompany you" she admitted. She then stood up and proceeded to follow her electromagnetic partner. She had to admit this part of the world was way more progressive than other parts in the world. She looked as a few OWL children were running across the street she smiled. They were so innocent and oblivious to the world around them. "I'm actually excited this is my first time trying sushi" she told him.

Cecilia was taken aback. It was the first time anyone had ever referred to Roulin and her as a cute couple. "Yeah, I hope it works out between us as well." She listened as Amara described the abilities of a Psion. Her lips formed a smile when Amara mentioned that her abilities were a burden sometimes. "I do know what you mean. My cosmic abilities are still growing so I have to be careful with how much I unleash or else it can mean big trouble for me and everyone else around me. Then there is the gravitational branch of my powers, which leave me more than exhausted after I unleash them." Her food arrived. Cecilia began to eat her Fettucine. She'd had it before in Italian restaurants in America, but it tasted much different this time. It was actually much better. She ignored the people staring. This was something that she was used to. "It's nice to be able to talk to someone who is laid back. So many of the others are all business all the time that it can be hard to get to know them and actually carry on a conversation with them."

Amara totally agreed with Cecilia. "Oh yes they can be major pain in the asses" she told her. Amara was always the "wildchild" of the group. "I think I've gotten so used to real freedom that business affairs of this world is of no priority to me" she said to her. She noticed the wardrobe that Cecilia had on. "I love your outfit by the way, it's very cute" she said to her. Amara soon finished her main dish and looked at Cecilia.
"I'd love for us to be better acquainted though, is there something you'd like to do after we leave this place?" she asked curiously. She was hoping the cosmic owl had something in mind, it would help them get to know each other in a natural environment instead of a forced action.

Cecilia looked down at her outfit as Amara complimented it. "Oh, thanks. I don't normally wear dresses, but I liked this one so much that I couldn't pass it up. I have to admit, I like your outfit as well." She ate a bit more slowly than Amara so she did not finish as fast, but when she did, it was clear that she was too full for a dessert. She decided that she would let her meal settle for a few minutes before she stood up or else it could mean bad news for her. She thought for a moment on what she wanted to do next. "Well I was either going to do a bit more shopping or visit a few more historical sights. I can't decide though." It was refreshing to spend time with another girl. Roulin was nice to be around, but she could not do certain things with him such as go shopping. He was a man and she knew that most men hated shopping with their girlfriends. "This is nice actually. It's nice to hang around with another girl and do girl-stuff," she admitted with a smile.

Amara smiled. "Thanks, I really like this ensemble myself" she said with a small laugh. "Hmmm how about visit historical sites...then shop" she said with an exaggerated happy face. "Or vice versa" she added. "I haven't had a real 'girl talk' in so long. Amaya she's good company but she's a married woman now...so things aren't how they used to be" she admitted. "I guess I could go shopping for the baby as well...." she said trailing off to herself. "I think I need to buy some new makeup and a few books to read in my leisure....unlike most people I actually love to read" she said with a smile. "If you'd like sometimes me and you can meditate together" Amara said smiling. She wanted to help Cecilia but also help herself as well.

Cecilia waved for the ticket, which was brought over immediately. Surprisingly, the meal was not all that expensive. She paid in exact change. As she waited for the waiter to return with the receipt, she spoke to Amara. "Historical sights sound quite fun," she agreed. "Who knows when we'll get to come to Italy again after this. We need to take in as much as possible." The receipt arrived. Cecilia placed it in her purse and stood up. "Well I guess I'm not most people because I love to read too actually." Sometimes Cecilia preferred to sit inside with a good book rather than go out. It was very calming for her. The young Cosmic Owl nodded when Amara mentioned them meditating together. "Well, it would be nice to have someone to meditate with." Meditations helped relax the body and the mind. She only wished that it would help with the visions as well. Perhaps with time, it would. "Um...are you ready to go?" she asked her new female acquaintance.

NeophantomX Itachi smiled as he watched amaya walk around the roman colliseum likely with no real destination in mind or if she had one she was well..... lost. Itachi and his wife had come there to see the colliseum but since tourists would get in the way itachi and amaya used there powers to keep everyone away from there for awhile at least. Amaya shorted out the power there and itachi made the temperature very uncomfortable until it was all closed down. Itachi currently sat high up in the colliseum looking it all over before he joined up with amaya to explore a bit more before leaving. It would be up to amaya to choose where they would go next as Itachi had taken the day off from training to enjoy somde peaceful quality time with his wife. " Hey are you allright down there? It may bde unstable in some places be carefull that you dont get hurt allright." said itachi calling doswn to his wife.
Amaya was a bit reluctant at first to take over the Coliseum, but it had been some time since she had spent time along with Itachi. The way they moved everyone out of the Coliseum had not hurt anyone and it was in the evening. Of course, some people probably found it odd that the Coliseum had gotten unbearably uncomfortable so quickly when the outside air was still fine. Anyhow, the two of them were alone now in the Coliseum. The Clueless Owl had never been to Rome before and certainly not to the Coliseum. Her eyes were closed as she imagined what games were held in the Coliseum back in the day. Itachi's voice interrupted her dreaming, but she smiled and nodded. "Yes." She looked at the Coliseum and wondered how piano music would echo here. Unfortunately, there weren't any pianos in the area. "I'm fine." She smiled back up at Itachi. "Let's go to the Sistine Chapel after this." The Chapel was known for its art....though at times, churches and chapels and weddings reminded Amaya of the crazy wedding that she and Itachi had been wed in.------------- ((Other - Genya/Ben - You pick Fal! Warning though... I probably won't have much internet access for the next week.))

((TFP---Raven))
“It’s hot” Raven muttered to herself. No one else from her beloved team was with her; for once she was out on her own. Probably not the wisest of choices, but she needed some down time. Besides, her team members were probably exploring Rome or the hotel at that moment and they would probably feel more relaxed doing their own thing for once.. After the mess in South America the Fallen Phoenixes had managed to gain the information that Rou & co were heading to Italy while the UNS members where somewhere in Europe, probably scattered around here there and everywhere. “Hm, they are not so unorganized that they would be in such disarray without a plan…They will be in contact with each other.” Raven decided while leaning back in the cushioned plastic chair; closing her eyes momentarily.
Her choice of attire for the day was a knee length thin white halter neck dress with a straw hat and a pair of shades to fight of the sun. For footwear she neglected her trainers or dolly shoes and opted for gladiator sandals instead. She sat up a little bit straighter when the waiter arrived with her order. The chicken Paella looked and smelled simply wonderful, but it was the wine that won her attention. Deep red and at a pleasant warm temperature; this wine was something she had become accustomed to in her early years. “Felsina Berardenga…” The red wine had been a favourite of her mothers and was now one that Raven enjoyed when she could. In fact, the wine was created in Italy, Tuscany, Umbria. “Bottoms up” The blonde removed her sunglasses and brought the glass to her lips before taking a small sip. She smiled as the faintly familiar flavours took over her mouth; awakening the senses that had been dormant for a while now. “Mmm….” For a short while she can enjoy the wine.
((TFP---Serena))
Serena was tired, no other word to describe it. It was her own fault; she had been out all night and day over indulging in shopping and other antics that only Italy could offer. It had been a while since she had last ventured to Europe and so she was making the most of her time there. So, when she finally climbed into bed she had made a vow that nothing and no one was going to get her off or outside into the blistering heat. Apparently though, Cerberus had other ideas. The silver haired woman was drifting in and out of sleep and was only vaguely aware of Cerbs whining so it came as a shock when the three headed bundle of electrical energy shoved her off her bed and onto the floor. “ACK!...WHAT?! WHO?!” She yelled while jumping up onto her feet with a rifle in her hand locked and loaded ready for action. (WTF?!) “Cerbs! What the hell was that for?!” She groaned when realising it was he who had pushed her off the bed. “Hungry? Ah, damn…..Let see……”
The last batch of steak the Vanishing Owl had fetched for Cerbs had not been the quality he liked and so she needed to re-think her tactics in order to keep the dog happy and healthy and in order for her to get a decent amount of sleep. “My head hurts…” Again, it was all her fault. She made it a rule of fitness never to touch alcohol, but unfortunately she had been ordering drinks the night before without knowing what she was getting and ended up slightly drunk. “OK! Why don’t you shrink down in size, hope into my phone and come with me in search for you food?” At one point, Serena had sent Cerberus back to Will…only to regret it and have Will send him back to her. She enjoyed Cerbs company it was just a shame that he was not able to stroll around in his usual form. They had to be careful in Europe; Owls here were not appreciated as much as they were in Japan. “Ah I miss my home~” Serena sighed softly before heading to the bathroom to wash and dress. Black shorts and a tank top was all she needed in the heat; while her long hair was tied tightly back in a long flowing ponytail. “Well, let’s get going. Who knows….we may get hold of a tasty human for you to munch on. But! No snatching of the street!”
((UNS---Daryle))
Ah, the Breezy Owl was back in action. Fully charged and ready to cause some chaos…well, in his own way that is. Daryle was dressed in a fine black suit and was currently strutting down a random road like he was on a cat walk. “Hehehe, it is such a beautiful country although I still prefer Spain.” He commented as he made a left turn on his travels. “Hmm….I hope this is the right way…If not I am lost.” Soon though, Daryle’s mind was put at ease when he began to recognise the familiar sights that he had seen on a few occasions. “I am here!!!” The lapdog then became so happy that he began running at full speed up the dusty driveway that lead towards a finely kept vineyard. “Wiiilllllliiiaaammm!!!!” Oh man, with Will’s hearing he would be able to hear Daryle’s calls from miles away. “I am back~<3” The blonde male skidded to a halt with a grin on his face and uttered Italian greetings to various workers who were pretty much used to the idiots antics.
“Ah, Will, it has been so very long.” Daryle said as he rubbed the back of his head. “Oh! About the missing shipment in Russia; all has been dealt with and well….let’s just say those responsible won’t be taking anything from anyone any time soon…” He paused and held up a hand “Oh! I got you a souvenir like I said I would and seeing as you have been good I will give it to you now!” The Breezy Owl fished around in his pockets ….then his bags…..then his trouser pockets…then his other bag before pulling out a bottle of Chivas Regal Royal Salute. The 50 year old whiskey was one of only 255 and cost around $10,000 to buy. Of course Daryle had not brought it….he had taken it from one of the men responsible for the trouble in Russia. “Ta da~ Enjoy, Mikhail allowed me to slip on out of Russia with this beauty.” He said with a chuckle before setting the bottle down in front of Will. “So….what have I missed?

Despite the many humans that could be seen in Rome, Italy, Lorna managed to enjoy her time spent there. There was so much to do here that it was nearly impossible to decide where to start. Lorna had already had her fill of shopping. Unlike most girls, Lorna did not do much of that, but she had managed to buy a Chinese themed outfit. It made her both home-sick and proud to wear it and it had been so long since she had worn a nice dress. Her emerald hair was done up in a teased bun held together by two long thin
Chinese hair ornaments. Even her bangs were pinned back slightly revealing her face fully. She looked like a completely different person without her normal street clothing. The Polaris Owl was happy that Raven decided to let them have a bit of relaxation before they had to get down to business again. Everyone else seemed to be enjoying themselves, each in a different manner. Of course, Lorna couldn't help, but wonder where Soliel had gotten himself to. She hoped to spend at least a little time with him before they had to get back to work again.

Cerberus whined a little and then settled himself on the bed and dumped the coveres over him so it seemed that he was either hiding or in a mood to sleep. The hellhound had actually lessened the Vanishing Owl's potential hangover by stealing some of the alcohol the night before and gulping some of it down before Serena noticed. However, at the mention of a "tasty human," Cerbs immediately complied with Serena's request and hopped into her cellphone....but not before licking Serena. ~Ruff!~ There were always humans to munch up on this planet. While Cerbs got more food with Will, he didn't mind gulping up people around Serena either. He was watching over Serena at the moment anyway because he knew Serena wasn't exactly on par with some of the other Owls in TFP when it came to Owl power. But what came into Serena's mind was...~Pancakes!~ Obviously, Cerberus still preferred live meat, but Serena said he couldn't snatch people off the street. Eh. He'd probably do it anyway. Will never said he couldn't...
-----------
((UNS - Will))
The blonde devil didn't even have to move an inch to know that the peace was about to be interrupted by a certain breezy lapdog. He had sensed the man from miles away, and that "cheery" voice of his carried quite a long ways. And if that wasn't obvious, the cloud of dust approaching certainly was.
There were a couple of sneezes from some of the workers when Daryle greeted them with that skid of his, which only kicked up more dust. Will watched without reacting. "Ah, Saxton. So good of you to return. You've only been lost for about a month." Will smirked. He motioned to a servant to bring two glasses for the whiskey Daryle had brought. "I see. That is good to hear. he commented on hearing of Daryle's brief report of the situation in Russia. "Take a seat."
Soon, the pair of glasses arrived, and Will waved the servant away as he himself opened the bottle for both of them to drink even though the Satan Owl knew of Daryle's reaction to drinks. "Care for some?" The Satan Owl asked Daryle. "Maybe later." Will poured a tiny tiny portion into Daryle's glass and then filled his own. "Things have been boring. You haven't missed anything." The blonde devil smirked again. "But that will change very soon, and I'm sure you have prepared Erin and Freya for that if the situation reaches them." Will took a sip of the whiskey and smiled. "Not bad." He leaned back in the chair. "The UNS is a broken team of many fragments," he merely stated before continuing. The devil did not trust Thomas, and his loyalties lay with Che. Sort of. There were the players and then there were the pawns in the UNS. That was pretty much it, though everyone could be classified as a pawn. "Johan and Anya. Quite the pair, aren't they?"

Amara looked at Cecilia and smiled. A part of her wanted to get desert but she felt that she'd be doing too much. She placed her money on the table with a tip and followed behind. As they walked she looked at Cecilia and smiled. "I've been meaning to ask you this, but back when we were in South America...what exactly did you see?" she asked. "If you don't want to tell me it's fine, it's just that now I have someone to talk to about premonitions. Around last year, I had several and recorded them in several small books...some were good...and others....not so good....maybe you've seen something that I haven't" she told her.

Cecilia could feel herself tensing up when Amara asked her about the vision she'd had when she they were all in South America. It was something she didn't want to think about. Yet it was surprising to hear that there was someone else who had been forced to experience visions of the future as well. "I guess I can tell you. Well, as you most likely know, not too long ago, Roulin and I went to Exire to confront Lucien about the murders that were happening and to prove his innocence since it appeared as if he was being framed. We were right and the true culprit attacked us. Of course he'd had quite a few tricks up his sleeves and the result was the floating island falling from the sky. After being unable to do anything about the island, we left. Well, in South America, during that meeting, the vision I had was of Exire being risen into the sky again. Only it seemed it wasn't an island. It appeared to be a large weapon of some sort, a battle ship if you will. I don't know who will be responsible. My vision was incomplete in that aspect, but in my vision I had also seen some blueprints on the island. Erin actually drew up a copy of the blueprints, which Roulin has now." Cecilia paused in speaking for a few moments. "But that's the first time I've ever had such a vision. I'm guessing it's another branch of my abilities developing."
