Your own decisions are what make you an individual.

Otherwise you're just a machine.

And I wouldn't spare earth if every human was just a machine.

Outside on the lawn

-EVERYBODY perks up as soon as you approach Ai, seems like they might have been waiting for a...while-

Kareena: Well I'm glad you asked Ai!

Joker: Does this mean we get to eat yet? (Ai...that purple chimera is taLKING)

Kareena: No, the food if for AFTER the initiation.

-it sounds like she had to explain that quite a bit to him-

Kareena: After discovering a piece of my father's treasure map in a hollow bone, I have come to a startling realization.

-she holds up an old looking piece of vellum (animal skin paper)-

-it has something drawn on it, along with letters you don't understand-

-it looks like...the room?-

Kareena: My father's treasure is HERE! In this land!

Roof (Number 108, "Aichi")

-Decisions make you an individual and not a machine...-

-...Does that mean that to make decisions makes you human...?-

"..."

-To be human...-

"...I..."

-He wants...-

"...I want to be a human."

-WE HAVE OUR FIRST REAL GOAL NOT GIVEN BY SOMEONE ELSE, EVERYONE-

-The goal may or may not be a pipe dream, but it's a decision he made!-

-He wants to be human!-

Outside (Ai)

-Eeeeeep! The chimera is talking!-

-...Well... This place has had very strange things, but it's easy to tell that she's startled despite that.-

-...?! The treasure is around this place?!-

"Ehhhhhhhhhh?! R-Really?!"

-She's absolutely shocked. She wouldn't have ever expected it...-

-And Kareena's wanting help with it, it seems (Seeing as she set this stand up)...-

-...Ai hasn't been able to help Leos and Sthesia... She can't help Aichi...-

-...-

-...She... She doesn't want to stand by, unable to help her friends!-

-This is her chance! Her chance to help even just one of her friends!-

"I'll do everything I can to help you!"

-You can hear that rare determination in her voice! She's eager to help you guys!-

"...I-If you'll have me, of course..."

-Annnnnnnnnd back to a sheepish smile.-

Outside on the Lawn

Kareena: Of course we'll have you! We need all hands on deck for this one!

-judging by the surrounding small grou, looks like she already recruited three others...well, ok Blade was gonna come no matter WHAT so...I guess she got 2 others so far, Voltaire and Joker-

-and now three!-

-Kareena hops out from behind her stand and shakes Ai's hand-

Kareena: Welcome to the Wulf Pack Ai! So, before I go into my long explanation, do you have any questions for me-us?

-well, there's the talking chimera...the demon girl...how exactly Kareena's father found a world between worlds, what this treasure is, who Kareena's father was, what happened to Zeraphine...-

-But knowing Kareena, it seems like she'd be ok with answering all of those things, and more-

That implies that you're not human already...

But I guess to become a true human is a noble goal.

Of course, I'm no expert on what makes humans well... human.

I'm an Ahxenite, after all.

Outside (Ai)

-Ai is happy to shake Kareena's hand, and is glad to be part of the Wulf Pack.-

-She wants to do whatever she can to help her friends, and this is a way to do it!-

-...Although she won't be seeing any of her friends here for a while...-

-...Leos...-

-...-

-...Sthesia and Misaki will be here for him...-

-...And Ai wouldn't be of any help to him anyway, as much as she wishes she could be...-

-O-Oh, questions...-

-So many questions...-

-...Let's start simple.-

"Um... Who are your friends?"

-...Ack! She should be introducing herself!-

"I-I'm Aichi Sendou... or, um, Ai."

-Um... Other questions...-

-The chimera and girl are already covered by her previous question... In theory anybody could end up here, so she's not especially worried about how her father got here (Although Kareena's world has a bunch of magic, so he could have gotten here that way as well)...-

-...Well, she's a little curious about the treasure and who exactly Kareena's father is. Ai knows that he was a pirate, but that's pretty much all she knows...-

-...And then there's Zeraphine...-

"...Um... Could you tell me a little more about the treasure your father hid?"

-And...-

"...What about Zeraphine...?"

-She seems to get noticeably down while asking that question.-

Roof (Number 108, "Aichi")

-Well...-

"I am not a normal human. I was created with various different human DNA."

-So apparently he's artificial.-

-...Apparently.-

-But... He wants to be a real human. Not just a tool.-

"What are Ahxenites?"

-He is aware that Xenos is one, but that doesn't mean he knows what one is exactly or what it entails.-

Voltaire: Nice to meet ya Ai. I'm Voltaire, most people call me Volta, and this is my Uncle J.

-she nudges Joker playfully. Her slight New York-ish accent is pretty adorable-

Joker: ...hi.

Voltaire: He's kinda a grumpy cat right now, don't mind him too much. He wasn't always a kitty cat ya know.

Kareena: Ye-yeah...we had a bit of an...incident...I tired to turn him back to human as best I could but all I could really do was giving back his voice. I figure it's kinda beauty and the beast curse, if he wants to be human, he's gotta play nice.

Joker: Yippee... (that sounded....so unenthusiastic)

Kareena: They're from a city called Gotham! They're famous criminals there (she says...happily)

Kareena: But we can trust them! I got a good feeling about it!

-onto the next question-

Kareena: I'm not sure yet what my father hid, but I do know that he was one of the most famous Beastly treasure hunters of all time! Well...ok, famous isn't the right word, see, he was actually pretty sneaky and low key about it to avoid making enemies. In the Beastly kingdom, it's ok to loot ruins and such, it's like...treasure recycling. The traps in them aren't to keep people out, but to test those that try to get the treasure! and my dad was the best!

Kareena: He had treasure stores all over, but smaller ones, those are the one's I've found so far...mostly artifacts, jewelry, stuff like that, but a few magical items as well...I believe that the treasure he hid here is his main trove, he probably didn't even realize this place wasn't part of Fantasia.

Kareena: I believe, this is where he hid his flagship, the Phantom Fox.

-dramatic music sting-

Blade: And As for Zeraphine, don't you worry, that's why I'm here. If we see here, we are allowed to use any tools at our disposal to take her down and put her in custody. I have a spare pair of magic blocking handcuffs that Yen Sid gave us. We just gotta stun her for long enough for me to get these puppies on her hands, and we're set!

-you can see the intricate gold handcuffs dangling from his belts-

Kareena: Yeah...and I won't loose my temper this time..I promise...

-then...she spots Audrey-

Kareena: Auds!

-she runs towards her and hugs her around the midsection, Blade just looks on a smiles-

Kareena: Audrey! You gotta sign up to be a pirate!

-she's so excited-

Well, we're aliens.

I'm sure you picked up what that means in your dictionary...

But Ahxenites come from the planet of Ahxen.

I'm the last of them though, so don't expect any-one else like me.

Outside (Ai)

-Voltaire...-

-...Wait, they've met before, but she doesn't seem to recognize Ai...-

-...A different version of her, perhaps? Like there are so many different Aichis (including herself)...-

-And Joker was turned into a chimera?!-

-O-Oh dear...-

"I-I hope you can get back to normal soon..."

-...And wait... They're criminals— Wait, the other Voltaire was too...-

-OK, she looks really nervous now, but she manages to keep a smile.-

"O-OK..."

-As for what she's saying about the treasure...-

-So that's what treasure hunting is like in her world?! Wow! It sounds really exciting!-

-...Although dangerous as well. Ai can't imagine herself being able to go through traps...-

-She's trying to picture it, but all she can see is her blundering into traps immediately.-

-She's got a very sheepish expression as she imagines this.-

-Anyway... Back to the main subject!-

-Things like artifacts and jewelry... a few magical items...-

-It all sounds so amazing!-

-And he might have hid his flagship here?!-

"W-Wow..."

-O-OK... Blade will be able to get the handcuffs on her... That's good...-

-Ai then turns to face Audrey in surprise.-

"O-Oh, um... Hello..."

-...Uh, Audrey, does this girl resemble the ghost boy you met that one time? She's a bit taller and older though...-

-H-Huh? R-Right!-

"R-Right! We're all going to work together to find the treasure!"

-She says that with a nice smile.-

Roof (Number 108, "Aichi")

-Yes, he knows what aliens are.-

"...You are the last?"

-...-

-...He gets quiet. Seems like this made him 'unhappy'.-

Kareena: right, what Ai said! All you gotta do is sign on the dotted line and we can all be one big happy pirate family!

Kareena: and of course everyone gets a share of the treasure we find!

-Joker's ears prick up at that-

Kareena: Minus any magical artifacts that I deem necessary to bring back to Yen Sid. Can't have those falling into the wrong hands!

-his ears droop a little at this, but still, gold and silver, rubies and emeralds!-

-He's definitely still 'unhappy'.-

-He's... not really equipped to respond to the idea of the death of an entire people barring one person.-

Outside (Ai)

-Wait... They're sharing it?!-

-Ai wasn't about to just ask for some of the treasure... It's her father's isn't it...?-

"A-Are you sure, Kareena...? That treasure was your dad's, right...?"

-Would she really be all right with parting with it?-

I wasn't on Ahxen at the time.

Everyone else was.

Our sun lashed a whip of flame at Ahxen.

Charred its' surface and cooked the underground.

No life survived.

Some records did, but that's because we were very good about keeping records.

Kareena: Well...I mean...in his will he left it all to me...but...that means I get to decide what to do with it.

Kareena: I wouldn't be a very good captain if I didn't share my loot, now would I? A good pirate always makes sure to play fair with their crew!

-....Fantasia has some odd 'pirates'-

Kareena: I...I'll still get some of it anyway! But...I have no need for gold and silver anymore...there are more important treasures in the world, both physical and intangible.

Kareena: that's what Yen Sid taught me. (her eyes sparkle oddly, meaningfully at this statement...as if they share a deeper bond than just master and apprentice)

Outside (Ai)

-So she really doesn't mind then... And Ai has to admit that she likes the idea of the pirates in her world.-

-...She wonders how Team Beautiful would react to this (They have their whole pirate theme going on).-

-Ai smiles when she sees that Kareena really took to heart what Yen Sid taught her. It seems like she really admires him...-

-108 is trained to listen to things very carefully.-

-He managed to hear that.-

"..."

-They tried to kill Xenos as an infant?-

"..."

-...Well gee, it seems like the guy can only process the idea of death so much at one time.-

-Pretty much giving him a blue screen of death here since he's not... you know, in a proper understanding of emotions or much of anything to deal with it.-

-So he's stuck standing there, staring like a moron.-

-Oh, and he's 'unhappy'. Very unhappy.-

-It takes a bit, but he manages to respond.-

"They should not have tried to kill you."

-Oh, hey, you could probably hear his voice waver! It's clear that the idea of that definitely bothers him!-

-Along with the idea of all of the other death!-

Outside (Ai)

-Audrey's going to join them?!-

"T-Thank you!"

-...Wait, she needs to introduce herself to Audrey!-

"Oh, um... My name is Aichi Sendou, but I've been going by Ai..."

-she gives her a salute-

-you notice for the first time she has changed out of her traditional pink sweet lolita dress into a pink, blue and white sailor inspired one-

-she looks ADORABLE-

Kareena: Well, you know...gotta radiate positivity!

-that sounds happy but...-

-before you can ponder it more, two items are slid towards you (Ai and Auds) on the stand's table-

-one is two flags with a black background, and a pink pawprint with crossed bones under it printed on them-

-the second item is a contract of sorts, written entirely in pink and purple crayon-

-the clauses are things like 'I promise to have as much fun as I can!' and 'I promise to respect my captain and my crew-mates'-

-I can list all of them if you want but they're all similar...this probably isn't as binding contract in any court of law anyway-

-you have a red crayon to sign your name with-

Kareena: the flags are our team symbol! Wear them proudly! (looks like you can use them as traditional flags, or, as Joker has done, wear them as a sort of bandanna)

Kareena: and once you sign your name you're both officially on the Wulf Pack!

-Ai quickly signs it.-

-The name "先導アイチ (アイ)" is clearly visible alongside "Aichi Sendou (Ai)".-

"I'm glad to join you all!"

-She grabs her flag and attempts to put it around her neck instead of on her head (Could you imagine a bandanna on that hair of hers...?).-
