A crisp morning, that December was. A cold, average day. quiet, at least until twelve PM. That, of course, was the opening hour of Mainstreed, the Questboards, and the Cherrywood Bar and Wood fire Pizza restaurant, a well-known hang out spot of a specific low-grade monster-bashing team, as well as where we find said team blacked out, on the floor, like usual.

 

NeverBetter awoke with a grunt, coughing up a ball of hair, he tried to recall last night's events. "That's the last time I let Yuffie get my drinks... I think I bit a chunk out of Silver's hair again..." He sighed picking himself up off the ground, he looked around at the rest of his drunken and sleeping team.

 

"All of you, get up, please!" NeverBetter called to his teammates. 

 

(Welcome to the world we now as Alternate. I have just put us all here for now, as I feel its the easiest way to do things in terms of kicking us off.  Let the posting commence!)

"As you wish." Silver said, standing up. He did want to get out of here before that conga line got out of hand. He was not getting involved with this any longer. He gave the group a parting glance before speaking up:"Well, if you wish to find me or Neko, we shall be finding ourselves some pies. If you wish to join us, I request that you do not bring that conga with you." I spoke rather officially; simply to get their attention before the two of us left to get some pies.

Nortanort sighed, looking at the conga line. "A conga? They are actually having a conga line?" he thought to himself, as he saw Axel, Kevin and Cap join in. "We're all crazy here, aren't we?" he pondered to himself, before literally jumping out of his chair, running outside, and putting his hands on Axel's shoulder, as he started to do the conga. "I might have two left feet, but I'm not getting left out of this!" he reasoned to himself.

Soul looked at the group with a mix of scorn and envy. The conga line was absolutely idiotic and he had no reason to join it considering he wasn't really close with most of these people lately, yet there was a desire to join in on the madness, even if through the piano. Meanwhile, Silver's constant flirting with Neko made him rather jealous, despite Soulnot having any intentions to actually date anyone. Deciding to just not do anything, he continued to follow Yuffie without a single glance backward.

Neko found a pasty store, and bought herself a chocolate pie. It looked amazing.

"Thank the gods." She bowed to the pie.

Then rushed back to the bar with Silver being dragged behind her.

"Bless this pie!" She said, starting to eat the glory.

"I--well, aren't you excited..!" Silver had to exclaim, watching Neko's feverish devouring of the poor chocolate pie. From the chocolaty and warm fragrance, he could easily tell the pie was of the top quality. Silver was never one for pies --there were a few he enjoyed-- but the smell of this one made his mouth water.

"May I try a piece," He asked with a cock of his head, ears flicking in a curious manner, "I mean, I can buy my own, but I'd rather taste it first.." 

Neko hesitanly gave Silver a single piece of the pie, before finishing the rest off.

"You better be lucky I gave you that."

"I can just buy my own." Silver mumbled in reply as he simply munched upon the small piece he had been given. It was good, and he desired more--but of course, Neko had finished off her own pie. Silver glanced at the counter, seeing a large glass cabinet that held a few of the pies.

"Hm, I might just get one..."

With that, he quietly got up, ordered on the pies, and sat down with his own pie neatly boxed up and placed into a nice bag. He smiled gently at Neko, and patted the bag, "Well, there we go. Thank you for the piece, though."

Yuffie strolled into a different bakery. She grabbed about six or seven raspberry scones, and before she paid for them, she took a bite out of one. She glanced up to the baker, who glared impatiently. Yuffie smiled, chewed raspberry scone in her teeth. "Pay." The nice baker lady demanded. Yuffie nodded quickly, digging through her pockets. The problem was.... she came up with only a bottle cap. She glanced to soul.

"Hey.... uh.... you have any spare change? I mean, it's not like I need it, but sharing is caring." She said.

"The only reason why I gave you that piece of pie is because I think it was poisoned." Neko said bluntly.

"Was it?" She asked, her gaze rather frightening.

As the conga line got longer, people oddly began to think they were street preformers, pitted them, and let money on 5 he floor. "I love to conga!" NeverBetter screamed, the money begining to shower the conga line, and people just joining in at an incredible rate, the cash floated around in the street, and it ended when NeverBetter's pistol accidentally went off and the people scattered. "Ahem... Gentlemen..." He scooped up the bills off the floor, and the change he left to everyone else. "I have a stack of macadamia nut waffles waiting for me." NeverBetter Wales to the building Yuffie was in, and dropped a brick of cash at her feet, and walked away, saying "Buy all the things!". He then took a quick stroll to the IHOW, stole a plate of waffels, and walked towards the mission boards.

Kevin was scraping money off the ground as he watched NeverBetter go into the bakery with money, walk out with no money, go to the waffle place, and leave with waffles. He stood up, his pockets jingling with change, and turned to Cap and Axel. "I think Never just stole those waffles." He said bluntly, pointing to their friend. He looked around to make sure he and his guild mates had gotten all the change, and then joined NeverBetter at the mission board. "So, whats on the agenda this fine day?" he asked. He started eyeing up the waffles as he remembered he never had any breakfast aside from the OJ. "Mind if i snag one of those waffles big guy?"

"The only reason why I gave you that piece of pie is because I think it was poisoned." Neko said bluntly."Was it?" She asked, her gaze rather frightening.

 

He shook his head. Considering he was still alive and not dead at all, there must have been no poison in that small piece. Of course, it was also possible the poison was deeper inside the cake, and the small crumb wasn't enough to poison Silver at all.

"No, I don't think it was."

"You never know Silver, anything could kill you. You could kill me right now but I know you wont." Neko said simply, looking Silver in his uncovered eye.

"Anything could kill us right now, but we are lucky to have lived this long. I will not let anything kill you as long as you are around me. Not even pie poison."'

"Same...I guess." Silver admitted, feeling a bit surprised at what Neko had said.

He shifted his feet a bit and glanced around. He didn't know what else to say. Curse his social awkwardness--it would be great to come up with something. Anything to say that could make this conversation better.

"I-I...uh, I'll do the same. I'm not the best...but, I'll do my hardest to keep you safe...and everyone, too."

"I'm not the best either." Neko pointed out, letting out a sigh.

"Well that conversation is over now. Just eat your pie."

"Whack a stack down your rib-racks." NeverBetter chuckled, looking over the lower-end missions. "Ah, a pack of rabid pegasi, that's a good one!" NeverBetter gleefully punched the screen where the mission was and entered their Guild Pin. "Alright, mission set!"

"I was gonna save it for later..." Silver mumbled, looking down at the pristine bag and package. He was going to store that away so when he ventured over to his fridge in a few days, he could have a pleasant chocolaty surprise. He looked up at Neko for a moment then back down at the bag.

"Well, I'll only eat it now if you'll share it. I'm not exactly hungry at the moment for anything, so you'd have to help. Otherwise this'll be in my fridge until I eventually forget about it."

"I'm not that hungry anymore either..." Neko muttered.

"We'll eat it tomorrow." She declared, her eyes gleaming.

"Fair enough." Silver said. He supposed that would do--though he did hope NeverBetter wasn't going to concoct some mission for them that would in some way ruin this small plan Neko and Silver had just made together. Not that there was anything wrong with NeverBetter's missions (except for the ones that also ended in a fist fight amongst the group), just that Silver did hope to enjoy the pie sooner rather than later

Kev grabbed a waffle. He had grown accustom to Never's eccentric speech, and could translate that to the equivalent of "yeah sure". Now munching on a waffle, a muffled "Pegasi, huh? Sounds fun." could be heard. "wow, these waffles are pretty good."

"Damn right they're good." NeverBetter laughed, then swallowed one of the waffels whole. "If we can get enough of their pristine horns, or at least two pegasi's woth of feathers, we can totally afford a good base!"

"Seriously? our own base? that would be incredible!" he said as he finished off his waffle. "finally, a place we would be able to call our own." he said dreamily, as he was lost in his own thoughts picturing their guild base. "god, i would kill like, so many pegasi for our own base."

"Would you mind turning the safety on your g-" Nortanort started, before realizing something. "Oh for the love of..." he muttered to himself, rushing back to the bar. Just as NeverBetter was returning with the pancakes, Nortanort returned, lugging his gun behind him and with a bright red bruise on his face. "Don't ask. Just... don't," he stated, looking around at the members of his guild. When NeverBetter told everyone about the mission, Nortanort said under his breath, "The proper term is a FLOCK of pegasi. A flock." He considered himself knowledge about these kinds of things, and couldn't help but correct NeverBetter. "Horns?" Nortanort inquired. To his knowledge, pegasi... didn't have horns. "Oh, and another thing. Anyone here have any nets? Or sugar cubes, for that matter?" He added.

Kev jingled his pockets. "I dont, but we could probably buy some after that conga line."

"This specific breed, in fact, is called under a heard. They spur from a genus of Unicorn that mated with the average Pegasus on accident. They reproduce quickly and consume a lot of their resources, but their bits are basically gold. The most prized of them are a black breed, their feathers used to be used only for royals attending funerals." NeverBetter corrected Nort. "I use to hunt these before this guild was made."
