As Chase is trying to enjoy the scenario and enjoy some alone time for even a brief moment, he suddenly gets push him from behind. Annoyed now, he turns around to spot a small group of humanoids. Some of the people glaring at him have some unique anatomy that could only belong to the Hidden World. One muscular shark looking individual approaches him and stares him down until he is only a few inches away from him. Standing nearly a foot above him, the gigantic man shark prepares to intimate him with a few threats, but unfortunately the soulless man has been in this situation too many times to know what is eventually going to happen. And dealing with Aine all day as already worn out his patience. So before the man shark could utter a single syllable, he proceeds to throw an upper cut and slams his knuckles against the fellow's jaw. He expected the the man shark to lose all his teeth and go to sleep, but instead the massive predator shrugs off the sucker punch and retaliates with a solid headbutt to his forehead. The heavy blow staggers the alcoholic long enough for the man shark to grab his shoulders with his powerful hands.
Before Chase could properly resister what is happening, he gets thrown through the wooden wall, where his body slides across the floor until his head lands near Aine's feet. Without blinking, she looks at her companion and asks to no one in particular, "It's not fair. How come you always manage to find somebody to fight?" As he places his hand on the table and slowly drag himself back to his feet he starts to compline under his breath, "Why the fuck does this always happen." As he gets back to his feet, the man shark and the rest the gang enter the bar through the hole in the wall.

“Exciting, two jobs! I’d love to do something more than just my idol time. It gets pretty time consuming.” Eri lamented as she stirred the straw in her colorful glass, plucking out the umbrella that adorned it to sip at the drink nonchalantly. “I don’t really need the singing practice, but my manager and dance instructors have me on practice almost 24/7, I barely have enough time for my plants! Not to mention the way I have to plan if I want to take some time off...I can expect a day off when I either quit...or die!” However, the last word made her laugh. Death wasn’t entirely NOT a possibility, but by normal means...her managers would be long dead before her.
Having only just started to enjoy her drink, Eri heard the commotion of a nearby wall giving way, and then the sound of a body sliding across the ground. Leaning back in her stool with a sound of worry emanating from around the straw, Eri looked to the rising Chase with a sigh of exasperation; of course, he did seem the type to pick fights...Though, she pushed the negative thought away, generalizing wasn’t polite and Chase could have gotten actually hurt in the exchange; Eri was irritated that she felt he’d mocked her, but she didn’t think that deserved him a beating by any means.
With a hop off her stool and the sound of her glass being placed down, Eri appeared at Chase’s side with a look of unveiled worry. “Are you okay?” She asked with genuine concern, making a gesture outwards as if to try and help him up or steady him in some way before looking to the footsteps coming through the new doorway they’d created. The gang was certainly fearsome to look at...but strange-looking humanoids and creatures weren’t something she’d never seen before and she could only frown in genuine disappointment. Must everything be done with violence? “Hey, that was really rude!” Like a mother scolding a child, Eri turned on her bare heel and set her hands on her hips, trying her best to not look scared at the figures that seemed to grow bigger and bigger as they approached.
“I don’t know what our friend here did, but it certainly couldn’t warrant that! Just be on your way and nothing has to happen here!”
Fumi was already hurriedly eating the small funnel-cake, plopping piece after piece into her ravenous mouth with a look of utter content on her features. The powdery sugar had such a lovely texture and an even more delicious taste...followed by the crispy cake’s outside and gooey inside...Fumi was in love! These were delicious!
However, at John’s prompting, Fumi remembered why she was really here! The wallet! Looking around and sucking the powder from her fingers, Fumi’s lips pursed as if she were in deep thought, and then she spotted it. The cheesy hearts, the gross couples together, and the inside of a ride that got VERY dark whenever the doors opened. With a dangerous smirk on her face, Fumi was clearly up to no good as she threw away her plate in a nearby trashcan, cleaning her other hand of the food’s goodness while she pointed to the ride that had piqued her devilish interests. The Tunnel of Love.

"Getting cool?" Erin was about to protest and say she was already cool...but then thought for a moment and realized she wasn't really cool at all, especially in comparison to her siblings. One's the head of a massive HW company, one is the captain of the Enforcement division, one is captain of the Intelligence division, one is a well-known seamstress...even her youngest sibling was a cool adventurer who had done dozens of expeditions. "Yeah...probably won't." She weakly replied to Marceline as Eri began speaking. Erin was about to respond...until she heard the sound of Chase crashing through the wall and skidding to a stop on the floor nearby.
Oh no...why did there have to be commotion here of all places?! While she wasn't on duty right now...it would look horrible if Aria found out that she was in a position to help someone and didn't. Standing up, Erin holds out her right hand and summons a long staff with an hammer-head at the end, and a spear tip above the hammer-head. She points it at the gang approaching, trying to look as intimidating as a person of her build could at this time. "H-halt! I'm with the HWIC! Leave now...or I'll have to arrest you all!" Her voice wasn't confident at all for the threat she was making. Hopefully someone actually in security today could pop in and help her out here.

"Ow! Don't elbow me with your bony arm!" Ashlea yelled with annoyance as Alexis made her way toward the arena, the group following behind. They soon find themselves at the water's edge, standing in front of a roped-off section of water that had four circular platforms floating in the water. Nearby the section of water was a small shack filled with foam weapons; such as shields, paddles, clubs, axes, swords, etc. Ashlea reached in and pulled out a long foam paddle, Elyssa choosing a small circular shield that was on the wall. Adam was standing in front of a piece of paper nailed to the wall, beginning to read it.
"It appears as if this is the rules of the game. It states; no magic and no outside weaponry are to be used in this sport. Winning team is decided by whomever is left standing on a platform at the end. To operate the platforms; put your weight in the direction you wish to go and it will move. Are there any questions?" He asked, Ashlea shaking her head along with Elyssa. "Nope! I'm ready to go whenever Audrey gets here." Ashlea states, looking to the side and seeing...Audrey walking up to the group with a foam bow and arrow in her arms. She wore a sparkly blue swimsuit, her long blond hair flowing down her back indicating she hadn't been in the water yet today. She was joined by a mysterious-looking man wearing a black shirt and brown shorts, with sunglasses masking his eyes. "Good afternoon, everyone!" Audrey politely called out to them, motioning toward the man next to her. "Please don't mind him, he's just my bodyguard."
Ashlea waved as Audrey approached, slightly annoyed by how pretty her friend looked and how proper she acted. "Hey, Audrey! You're on Elyssa's team here facing Alexis and I. Hope you're ready to lose!" The fire mage boasted, Audrey politely nodding in response. "I will be sure to give it my all. Pleasure to meet you, Elyssa." She extended her hand out, which Elyssa takes. "Nice to meet ya too. Man, your suit is bright." Elyssa noted, barely able to stare at it directly with how much it reflected the sun's light off its sparkles.

"Oh god dammit." Marceline grumbled as the big blonde doofus was hurtled out of the restaurant. "Arrest them either way! They need to pay for my wall!" The vampire behind the bar yelled, pressing a button for island security. The golems would be a minute to assist Erin, but for the moment she didn't have much in the way of backup. Marceline sighed and slid out of her seat to stand behind her. "Look, I know he punched first, and he's probably done something stupid and demeaning and objectifying to you before, but yeah, fuck off." She didn't want a fight. Hell, she might run away if they actually attacked. But she'd act tough right now.
"I don't think we've met, sparklebutt." Alexis extended the hand that wasn't holding a big foam club to shake. "You're my sister's friend, right?"
John smiled at Fumi's choice. "Oh, really? Well alright then." This was a lot more bold than he expected. He went with her to the entrance. "Two tickets, please." He quickly paid, giving Fumi another glance at her prize. He stepped into the little boat and held out a hand to help Fumi on. "If you need anything in the dark, just use your phone okay?" He suggested.

"I don't believe we have met either." Audrey ignores the comment and shakes Alexis's hand. "Audrey Swanson, member of the Azur house and princess of Välstånd. Pleasure to meet you." Audrey gave a small bow as she shook Alexis's hand, letting go and taking a quiver full of foam arrows out of the shack and looking back at Alexis. "I presume you are Ashlea's sister? I have heard much about you." She remarks, having heard Ashlea complain about her sister quite a bit. Adam had already taken his seat at the referee/lifeguard chair, waiting for the others to start the game.

"Oh, an actual princess. Ashlea must be livid with jealousy." Alexis chuckled and gracefully skipped onto her disk. The instant the game begin, she leaned full bore for Audrey. She launched a single hard blow for Audrey's ribs, trying to knock her clear. "See how cool that was, Adam!?" She called loudly.

"I am not jealous! I am just as important, for I am also a princess!" Ashlea boasted, not actually having any claim to royalty like Audrey did. "I am sure she harbors no jealousy." Audrey states in response to Alexis, giving a small smile as she steps on her platform and shifted her weight to test how the device moved. There was a small foothold in the center of the platform that was attached to a pivot, allowing the user to rotate their foot while it was still in the foothold. The four of them make their way to the center of the playing field; Ashlea still getting adjusted to the controls while Elyssa seemed to have figured it out already. "Ready? Three...two...one...begin!" Adam calls out to the four players.
Audrey saw how Alexis was charging directly for her, and shifted her weight to the right in order to move out of the way of Alexis's charge with her bow held at the ready. "Impressive attempt, I must say." Audrey compliments as she loads a foam arrow into the bow and fires directly at Alexis's ankles. She hoped to make her knees bend and throw her off balance, hopefully knocking Alexis off her platform. Meanwhile, Elyssa was circling around Ashlea as she continued to figure out how to use the device. "How the heck do you work this thing?! It's unnatural as heck!" The fire mage yells out, Elyssa leaning forward on her platform in a show-off manner. "You just have to lean! Baaaaaadum. Baaaaaaaadum. Dumdumdumdumdumdumdm." The adventurer jokingly began singing the Jaws theme as she made the circle smaller.

Alexis buckled a little at the foam arrow, making her disk rock back and forth. "Oho, nice try!" Alexis intentionally began to swerve harder, making any shot at her ankles much more difficult. She zigzagged back at Audrey and tried to bat the bow out of her hands. She couldn't be knocked off if Audrey was unarmed!

"I appreciate the compliment." Audrey politely states as she watches Alexis zigzag around the arena trying to make aiming at her more difficult. Once Alexis got close, Audrey held out her bow and turned it in a way that made Alexis's bat go between the bow and string, Audrey twisting the bow to try and whip the bat out of Alexis's hand using her own. "Bows can still be used defensively, I'm sure you know." Audrey remarks as she twists the bow sharply to the right, also hoping that Alexis would hold onto her club and perhaps be pulled off her platform.
"Dumdumdumdumdumdumdumdumdumdum." Elyssa continued to taunt Ashlea with her 'background music', making her circle closer by the second. Ashlea held her paddle ready to swat at Elyssa once she got into striking range...but was surprised when Elyssa leaped off her platform and landed on Ashlea's, grabbing the paddle and tossing it into the middle of the arena. Ashlea tries to shove Elyssa off the platform, but Elyssa expertly dodges out of the way and catches Ashlea's left arm before she is able to fall into the water. "Not done with this fight yet!" Elyssa called out as she and Ashlea began to fight for control over the platform.

Alexis chuckled when Audrey got her club entangled. "Oh yes, bows, the best defensive weapon. I've heard that one before, right before I did this." Alexis stepped in, pushing her side up to Audrey's to put tension on the arm holding the bow. With the club's length, she had leverage that Audrey lacked. She would wrench this thing out of the princess' grip or dislocate her wrist trying!

Audrey watched as Alexis began to put tension of her arm, the strength of the fire mage made obvious that she trained frequently to get this strong. "Quite clever...but not enough." THe ice mage said as she pushed her left leg behind Alexis's, sharply pulling back to try and take Alexis's legs out from under her. Since they were this close to the water, falling down should make Alexis land directly into the water and the surprise should make her let go of her arm.
Ashlea and Elyssa continued to fight for control of the platform...but it was evident that Elyssa had the upper hand. Ashlea wasn't used to fighting this close, as she relied mostly on fire spells, her whip and Mimi to keep people at a distance. Elyssa, by contrast, has trained in a few martial arts and was applying her skills to keep Ashlea at bay. With one final gut punch, Ashlea doubles over and lands on the platform on her stomach. "Whew, that was fun! Now then..." Elyssa remarked as she picked Ashlea up from behind her arms, leaning against the platform to make them rocket toward Alexis and Audrey's fight.

"Not enough!" Alexis stiffened herself against Audrey's push and stole an arrow from the princess' quiver. She shoved it into Audrey's back to push her. With her already compromised footing, she should be dropped by this one.

The arrow pressed against Audrey's back, causing the ice mage to lose her footing and fall directly into the water below. However, a split second after Audrey fell, Elyssa rides along and places Ashlea directly onto Alexis's platform. The adventurer then leaps off of her platform and lands onto Audrey's, riding it away so neither of them could leap onto it. "Left ya a present! How do ya like it?" Elyssa joked as she rode away, turning around and watching Ashlea stumble to catch her footing.
"Uuuuuugh...let's just get me to that platform over there." Ashlea tells Alexis, pointing to the platform Elyssa abandoned about 30 feet away.

Alexis cheered when Audrey splashed down. "Did you see that?" She yelled to Adam before Ashlea's weight threw her disk off balance, clumsily tilting back and forth. "Woah! Woah! Get off my platform!" She set her feet further apart and regained balance. "Sounds like a plan. I don't want you on here any more than you do." She looked over her shoulder to gague the distance and keep an eye on Elyssa." Okay, on three, lean towards it. Three, two one!" She leaned into her sister, luckily too light to knock her off.

"Most impressive, Miss. Primrose." Adam calls out in response to Alexis. Ashlea wobbles on the platform slightly, but manages to lean in and make the platform begin moving toward the one floating in the water. "Well I don't want to be on this thing either!" The fire mage calls out.
As the two got closer, Elyssa sharply turns her platform around to face the two and holds the paddle Ashlea was using earlier. "Try and beat this!" Elyssa calls out, thrusting the foam weapon out and trying to knock Alexis backward and toss both of them off the platform.

"Argh! This girl's way better than the actual princess!" Alexis called as she deflected the paddle strike with her club. The force made her nearly lose balance again and she leaned on Ashlea to steady herself. "Sorry sis! You steer, I'll try to keep her off!" She swung back, trying to push the paddle down so Elyssa was forced to lean forward, putting her in range for a head strike or two.

"Fine, just keep her away from us!" Ashlea called out as she leaned forward and rocketed toward the platform. Elyssa saw Alexis pull her hand back to swing downward, so she shifted the paddle sideways and leaned to the right to get away from Alexis. This was working perfectly; the two of them were working together finally! "You think I'll let you get there so easily?!" Elyssa said with a confident grin as she whipped her platform around to try and deliver a sideways swing into Ashlea's stomach, who manages to duck out of the way...leading the paddle to swing toward Alexis instead.

Alexis was pushed to the edge of the disk by Elyssa's strike, tilting it dangerously. "Woah! Sorry!" She swung the club to use the momentum to straighten up. The sheer force spun the disk to carry the club at Elyssa's head. "Hold on Ashlea!" She yelled as she sharply turned the disk.

The group of monsters were not at all intimated by the little girl, yet even though she lacked any physical intimidation, as soon as she said, 'HWIC,' the man shark froze in place. He may look like a brute, but he isn't dumb enough to mess with the HWIC, especially here. Besides, he still wants to enjoy his vacation. With a low humming growl, he does his best to hold back his anger, as he turns around, and leaves the bar with his body. As the group leaves, Chase prepares to go after them as he wasn't going to just let an overgrown shark get away with throwing him throw a wall. But before he could take another step, Aine grabs his arm with so much force, that a cracking noise emerges from inside the room. "If you take one more step towards them, I'll break the rest of your bones." she stated nonchalantly. She wants a good fight as much as the next warrior, but escalating the situation here would go against her master's wishes, as he told her to avoid the hidden world organizations' bad side for now.
Mumbling under his breath, the soulless man returns to his sit.

It was a nice day, a really calm one... It was a long time since they got any time to take care of their relationship. Chloe was completely lost after they checked in, she didn't knew where to go and the map wasn't helping at all, by other hand, Gallerian was taking photos to his surroundings and Chloe as well, always making a comment about how pretty she was. Gal... where do we go? I can't find... anything interesting... - She spoke frustrated What about the shops near the beach? We can buy something there.. oh! and we could go to the spa! To relax, since it is the Hidden World we can get a wing massage! - The man spoke with excitement, grabbing his wife's hand. They weren't really married, but the feeling was there!
It didn't took enough time to cheer the female angel again, the shops had a lot of clothing, accessories for hair, makeup. Even little mementos of the place that were good decoration for their apartment with the younger boys. Gallerian by other hand was carrying all the items they bought, he didn't mind after all he had plenty of strenght.
The walked looking at more shops, they even bought things for their animal forms, like cat and dog's toys, brushes, and silly clothing for Thomas's "Cute Place" blog.
After two hours of buying and walking, the couple sat in a bench. Their bags next to them while enjoying ice cream. The black haired man hadn't stop smiling the whole day, spending time like the people outside the Driaochta Kingdom really was fun! Of course he was worried "their kids" could get in trouble... well, Derek wouldn't do anything since most of the time likes to be indoors, but Thomas... that boy was probably planning a party! He hoped they didn't drink alcohol or weird stuff like that... He never got used to the taste... despite he would deny that he goes drunk really easy.
Chloe by other hand was still tense... getting to relax... an angel like her wasn't used to do that.
