[Ariel|Jessi|Kadaj|Kairi|Aiden]

Aiden giggled and poked Tai.

Ariel nodded. "Alright," she said, looking at Kari. "We will soon, we just have to wait for some friends,"

Howl looked at Rapunzel in panic. "I don't know . . . ! She seems to be in some sort of coma . . ."

[So/Ri/Tai/Tia/Kari/Mason/Evey]

*Tai removes Aiden's hand so he doesn't poke him* Stop that. =__=
*Kari sighs* Hungy...
*Sora frowns* You can take the kids home if you need to.

*Riku bites his lip before growling* That woman! I bet she knows!

[Ariel|Jessi|Kadaj|Kairi|Aiden]

Aiden giggled.

Ariel held Kari close and looked over at Sora, biting her lip. "Are you sure . . . ?"

Howl growled and held Rapunzel close. "She knew this would happen . . ." he exhaled and gently kissed Rapunzel. "Don't worry, we'll wake you up soon," he said softly before looking at Riku and nodding. "Alright,"

[So/Ri/Tai/Tia/Kari/Mason/Evey]

*Tai sighs* Why are you so happy?? =___=
*Sora nods* Yeah. I'm gonna go help the others. See what's taking so long. Keep Kari out of danger.
*Tai smirks*

---

*Riku nods* Come on. *he gets up, running back to the room with Nehelenia in it*

[Ariel|Jessi|Kadaj|Kairi|Aiden]

Aiden giggled and clapped his hands.

Ariel nodded at Sora and exhaled, looking over at Tai. "Tai, can I have Aiden back please?"

Howl nodded and ran back to the room, holding Rapunzel.

Kiki bit her lip as she held Hodari close, running with them but hanging back.

[So/Ri/Tai/Tia/Kari/Mason/Evey]

*Tai looks at Ariel with a slight frown before giving Aiden back* Here. *he starts to walk off, without word*
*Sora nods, kissing Ariel on the lips and Kari, Mason and Aiden on the cheeks and forehead* I'll see you all later. *he gives a soft smile and goes back into the portal to find the others*

---

*Hodari whimpers at bit, seeing Rapunzel not looking at him*
*Nehelenia chuckles when she sees them returning* She won't awaken hm?

[Ariel|Jessi|Kadaj|Kairi|Aiden]

Ariel took Aiden in the arm that wasn't holding Mason, having previously put Kari on her shoulders so the little girl could hold onto her head. Ariel smiled a bit at Sora and then exhaled slightly at Tai, biting her lip, unsure of what to do before exhaling and starting to walk off back towards the house.

Kiki bit her lip and bounced Hodari. "It's going to be okay," she murmured.

Howl growled. "How do we wake her up?"

[So/Ri/Tai/Tia/Kari/Mason/Evey]

*Tai glances back at Ariel as he watches her leave with the kids; his stare is cold, knowing he's lost all the trust they had in him*
*Kari looks at Ariel* Home now Mommy?

---

*Nehelenia grins* Why don't you listen to her heart? *inferring that if howl were to do that, he heart isn't there*

[Ariel|Jessi|Kadaj|Kairi|Aiden]

Ariel smiled at Kari and nodded. "Yes Kari, home," she said, their house now in sight.

Howl growled at her. "What did you do with her heart???"

[So/Ri/Tai/Tia/Kari/Mason/Evey]

( So uh...woosh for them? Lawls )

*Nehelenia laughs* Well first you need to put me down.

[Ariel|Jessi|Kadaj|Kairi|Aiden]

(XDD I guess XDDDDD)

Howl growled. "I'll keep my word, I won't know if you will though. You aren't coming down until Rapunzel's safe,"

[So/Ri/Tai/Tia/Kari/Mason/Evey]

*Nehelenia rolls her eyes* She'll be "safe" when you release me.

[Ariel|Jessi|Kadaj|Kairi|Aiden]

Howl growled. "Swear. You know the ancient language of all magic. Once you make an oath in that tongue you are bound by it on pain of death. Swear in that language that you will awaken Rapunzel and then leave without causing harm, trouble, or taking Hodari, should I release you,"

[So/Ri/Tai/Tia/Kari/Mason/Evey]

*Nehelenia smirks* I can say it. But I cannot promose you it will happen.

[Ariel|Jessi|Kadaj|Kairi|Aiden]

Howl growled. "What do you mean?"
