"That's pretty cool, I see what you mean," Lino said to Boice. Her skills with people did seem to be pretty remarkable from what he'd seen. Finally they got to the zoo. Lino gulped at Celina's words. The man standing at the entrance looked rather intimidating. Lino steeled his nerves though, and made himself to walk up to him. "Hello sir," Lino said with a smile (forced, though he had gotten good at making a false attempt look natural over the years). "My name is Lino," he said as he held out his hand.

Celina's dad smiled at Lino, being calm, in his business suit.
"Well... it is nice to meet you Lino... names Dave. So... you plan on dating Celina?" he then says, chuckling. Just then Celina flush red.
"DAD!" she yells at him, before he burst into laughter.
"Sorry Celina... it was too hard to resist... Well... Come... lets get to my office and we can talk there. I am trying to find some people to work here, but some jobs are less... attracting for people then others. We kinda need some help with cleaning around the zoo for people that are leave junk around. Also need help with feeding the animals here and there.... so we will see." he says calmly. Celina breath deeply before her dad moves towards his office. She looks at Lino.
"I hope he won't mind about the paper work or e..." she start to say, before her dad says something while walking.
"Oh and you will need to show me your Social Insurance Number so I can get it in the system..." he says. Crap.... Hope Boice will be able to help wtih that....

{Boice}
<Lino/Celina>:
Boice stood next to Celina as Lino went up to shake the father's hands. She folded her arms out in front of her, leaning forward and she balanced herself on her toes for a few seconds, and coming back down. She chuckled a little after the man suggesting Lino and Celina dating, giving Celina a little nudge with her shoulder as she turned to look at her reaction. "Haha! Can't see you together." she let out just after Celina yelled in reaction to her father.

Just as Dave mentioned the 'social assurance number', Boice quickly stood up and stood next to Lino to help out. "Oh, no no no sir. Dave is Italian, they don't have social insurance numbers... they use the fiscal code." she said quickly, trying to save Lino. "His would be AIIIUX87C030883N." she rattled off, not taking specific note if Dave was writing it down or not. "That means, he is just eighteen and old enough, just there at the 87 part, being his year. So, yeah? Good enough for him to work with you? If not, I'm sure we can get other stuff needed from parents. But all that confirms last, and first name, birthday, area code, etcetera... that is what fiscal code tells you, but it should be good enough because Italians don't have social insurance numbers." she said with an added smile for her cleverness of figuring it all out on the spot.

"Oh no sir, I only met your daughter today," Lino said, flustered for a moment before realizing that he was just joking. He smiled slightly, it sounded like something his own dad would tease. He relaxed a bit, Celina's father seemed alright. "I am good with any kind of work, so that would be fine, Lino said, following Dave.

Lino frowned when Dave mentioned the number. He hadn't even heard of that system before. He was still thinking of something to say when Boice spoke up. Lino gave the girl a grateful look. "Yeah, that is right. No social assurance numbers in Italy. My fiscal number should work instead, right?" he asked, trying to act confident.

Celina's father stared at Dave for a while, and then at Celina. Celina sighed a bit.
"He dosen't look 18 to me Celina..." Dave then says. Celina stares at her dad as he continue to talk.
"But he does look about your age... although... I am guessing it's cause he really needs a job and though that 18 was needed for this..." he says. Celina looks at him.
"Whatever his age... please let him a chance... he dosen't have anywhere else to go anyway." she then says. His father continued to walk, thinking.
"I do have some work, but it mostly involves cleaning the zoo up a bit during the day, and it would be with shifts." he then says. Celina smiles a bit as she looks at Lino.
"If he does want that job that is... I am kinda missing personal... but I will need some information on how to pay him and such... if it will be in front money or by bank account.... also a way to contact him if possible..." he then says. Celina then looked worried a bit.
"I think he lost everything... that why he was moneyless... and maybe homeless..." Celina then says. His father stares at her and breath deeply.
"I guess we could get him a room somewhere... but it would be small... and it would take a slight amount of the pay as a fee..." he then says. Celina looks at her father then at Lino.

Lino shifted from foot to foot nervously as Dave thought through everything. He watched as Celina tried to convince her father. Even if this didn't work out, he would have to thank her for how much she was trying to help. She barely knew him after all. Lino's eyes widened when Dave said that they could find a place for him to say while he worked. "Wow, thank you sir, that would be great! I will be a hard worker, I will not let you down," he said, smiling. He hadn't expected Dave to be so generous. Maybe now he could finally start a life for himself, one without crime or theft.

{Boice}
<Lino/Celina/Dave>:
"Well then, I guess that is it." Boice said, clapping her hands together and rubbing them slowly after the small conversation had gone on. Dave was obviously a little bit suspicious, but he was fooled enough to let Lino have the job anyway. All we have to remember now is the story. Lino's from Italy, lost everything, homeless, and moneyless. she thought to herself, writing down mental notes to keep track of. "So, that it? All done?" Boice asked.

{Maya}
<Bella/Flippy>:
"Alright, sounds like a plan!" Aeilta said, looking at the monsters one last time before turning to the tower and making a sprint for it. "Careful! The monsters are coming to life now." Josive announced. The two Big Cube-Things both turned towards Aelita, and started a barrage of lasers at her, seemingly faster than normal. The lasers were much more accurate too, all landing a few hundred feet away, and slowly making their way up for Aeilta at a steady pace. Once they reached up to her, two hit her, one in the arm, and another in the leg, sending her backwards quickly. Luckily she was just near the tower.

After the shots, one of the Big Cube-Things started marching towards Aelita, but turned it's head towards Bella and Flippy, launching off another barrage of lasers, joined together with the other Cube's lasers. The big Giant Sphere-Thing opened up for a second, revealing it to be a monster, before closing back up and rolling towards Aeilita quickly. As long as it stayed shut, there was no damaging it, so the heros would have to wait for an opening.

{William}
<Sam/Garsin>:
Garsin's tune appeared to work well on William and Sam, just as much as they had helped himself. They both felt lighter, and quicker. "Good thinking Garsin, you're a natural." William said, giving him a quick nod before continuing off towards where he felt the pulses. A few minutes later, the trio reached a point where they could see the tower in the distance. Not only that, but there were monsters attacking some human-looking people.

"Those are the people I saw before. They are going to stop us, they won't see the things we do unless we show them with the towers. But for now, XANA is our common enemy, and we need to work together to defeat him. I've already done as much as I could for today, so I cannot activate another tower until tomorrow, so we might as well help defeat XANA." William said as he continued to lead the way. "Let's show them how it's done!" he yelled out, pulling his weapon behind him.

{Maya/William}
Aeilta tried for the tower again, standing up quickly and sprinting for it. Alas, the Giant Sphere-Thing appeared before her and the tower, blocking her way. It opened up and started to squeal as it charged up an attack. Just before it could unleash it's devastating move, William rammed into Aeilta's side, sending her out of the way. As the blast came for William, he quickly held his sword in front of him, turning into smoke and dodging to the side, riding his way up to the top of the monster just as it finished pulling it it's attack. He stabbed his sword down into the monster, aiming for the eye, but it clamped shut just before it could reach. William tried pushing, but a laser from one of the Little-Mini-Crabs hit William off of the monster.

After the random attack from the monster, the lone Giant Cube-Thing angrily turned towards it and shot a laser at it's feet, making it jump backwards and then continue it's dance around the pillar. The pillar had started to flash faster after the monster stopped it's circling, but it returned to it's usual pattern once it joined it's friends once again. Aelita was stunned by William's sudden appearance, stopping to look at him. "Who-" she started to ask, but he pointed to the tower as he regained his stance. "Go, now!" he yelled. The Giant Sphere-Thing rolled forward, so the hilt of William's weapon touched the ground, opened itself so the weapon dropped out of it, then closed back up and rolled to crush William where he stood.

Aeilta bolted for the tower, but as she almost touched it, a bright red light flashed and bounced her back, the light traveling upwards in an oval-shape around the tower, revealing there to be a force field of some sort. "Aelita, watch out! Your life points are down to forty already! If you take much more, who knows what could happen!" Josive yelled out, worried she wasn't being careful enough.

Celina smiles before Dave breath deeply and gets some papers out.
"I still gonna need a signature. A contract we could say for part time and not disclose information you would learn here." he then says. Celina then got up.
"Dad, gonna go take care of the foxes while you take care of the paper work." she then says, Dave nodding as Celina leaves the room. Dave smiles a bit.
"Such a gifted girl... I don't know how she does it, but it seemed that every animal she meet seem to like her..." he says, chuckling a bit before spreading the papers out a bit, asking for a couple of signatures. One for none disclosure of information here, one for duration of the work, and other papers that were more information then contracts.

Just before the large sphere came close to William, Garsin squared off with the giant sphere and braced against it, halting its progression. "Hurry, move!" he grunted under the monster's force. The veins in his muscles started to appear as he put more strength into changing the monster's direction away from the others, he then pushed off of it and rolled to the side, hoping the sudden lack of opposing force would send the rolling monstrosity reeling a ways from the group. "Alright lets get this done," he said while regaining his breath. The otherworldly cello floated from his back and he thumbed a string which summoned the bow. Instead of playing it himself, it floated in the air next to him as he took up a fighting stance, waiting to react to the monsters before him.

"Alright, sounds good!" Lino said in response to Dave's request for signatures. He waited as Celina headed back out to take care of the foxes. "Huh, that is pretty neat," Lino replied back, looking over all the papers. He wasn't sure exactly what everything meant in them, but thought that he got the general gist. He quickly signed the pages that Dave pointed out.

<Bella>
Bella ran after Aelita. I hope we can make it, she thought, heart racing as the monsters woke up and turned towards them. "Aelita!" Bella shouted when the lasers hit her. "Are you okay?" Bella froze in her tracks though when the cube turned towards her. She dove off to the side as the laser barrage came flying. Bella grabbed her paintbrush and pallet and swirled the brush in the paint, making the symbol for fire in the air. The summoned fire wall launched at the monster.

In the corner of her eye Bella saw the sphere monster heading straight for Aelita. It charged up for an attack, something big. There was no way for Bella to reach the girl in time. But just as it was about to fire a figure came running at Aelita, knocking her to the ground out of the path of the attack. Who is that? But the big cube was firing lasers again. She slashed her brush in a vertical line with yellow paint, with no idea what would happen. "Flippy cover me," she said, casting another fire wall at it before dodging lasers and running towards the tower and the others. If she could get close enough she could help stave off the monsters long enough that Aelita could get to the tower.

Flippy followed the others until they came up on the monsters which started firing at them immediately. He saw lasers going everywhere, so he drew his sword and took up a defensive stance. Blocking the lasers wasn't easy but it also wasn't hard it was just that there are a lot of enemies firing at once, and there's a new enemy which first seemed like nothing but once it fired Flippy knew this couldn't be good.

Once Bella asked for his help Flippy quickly made his way over, and got some of Bella's fire on his sword. "Now it's time for some offensive defense." Flippy said as he blocked a few more lasers before going into attack mode. His plan was to try and cover Bella by distracting most of the monsters that were targeting her. "Come on hit already!" Flippy yelled as he came up on a cube, and tried to stab it in the symbol.

Dave waited a bit for the papers to be sign before smiling. He then walked to a closet and got a uniform out.
"This will be so that people in the zoo know you work here. Standard uniform." he says. He then breath deeply and then gets a map out of his desk, showing all the cages of the zoo and such.
"The north west section needs cleaning up a bit." he says. He then puts a mark on the map.
"And you will find the cleaning supplies here." he adds. He then gets a key out.
"Here is the key for the shed." he says, then looking at the map.
"I think you should also see my girl in the fox pen also, knowing her." he then says chuckling a bit.

Meanwhile, Celina was climbing down, a bit of a protective uniform on her as she gets on the ground, the foxes hiding a bit from her right now, unsure about her. She was new to them, so they didn't really trust her that much.

Seeing how the giant sphere-like monster was just sitting still, Garsin decided to try to crack the overgrown egg. He recalled the strange cello to himself and struck up some long low tones creating that sonic blast he discovered earlier that blew a hole in a tree. If the attack was unburdened by the tree and cut right through it, maybe this could do something to it, he guessed.

"Okay, all done! I have somewhere to be, so, I see you later friend." Boice said with a small smile. She turned around to leave, and walked out the door, disappearing outside. After a short walk to a nearby diner, she sat down at the bar and looked up at the t.v. playing up in a corner. "A partir de maintenant, nous ne savons toujours pas ce qui a causé la perte de contrôle soudaine dans l'avion."

[Josive]
<Maya/Bella/Flippy>:
"As of now, we still don't know what has caused the sudden loss of control in the airplane. The pilot has been knocked out, and the co-pilot was currently in training. The airline attendants have found someone capable of taking over the controls, but the plane is still not working. At this point, we estimate the plane will hit the ground in five minutes if they cannot take control. We advise everyone to call their-" Josive found a t.v. station announcing the decent of an airplane nearby. He couldn't understand what they were saying, so he quickly used an auto-translation program he had to help understand it. He pulled up some useful links showing where the plane currently was, it's decent rate, and trajectory.

"Uh oh guys, we have a big problem here. I think I've discovered what XANA has been up to. There's a plane about to hit the ground in five minutes. It looks like it was aiming for the school awhile ago, but it's now aiming for the factory! I'm setting up an automatic return to the past. I've calculated exactly when it'll hit, and have the return to the past activate before it crashes. So your'll have until then to get that tower done!"

{Maya}
<Bella/Flippy>:
"What's going on? I can't get in! There's a red dome around the tower now." Maya said, looked up at it. Bella's first attack was frozen as the cube-monster shot a beam of ice at it, freezing the wall of fire before it hit. Her second attack, a vertical yellow line, spread from a few feet in front of her on the ground, charging towards the enemies. The cube tried to move out of the way, but the ground below it turned into quicksand, slowly making it sink through the ground. It quickly shot ice around it, connecting it's legs to the solid ground on either side of the long path of quicksand, stopping it from sinking.

The cube turned back upwards, shooting lasers at Bella again, but this time the fire wall came at it and devirtualized it. The cube Flippy attack slid backwards away from each strike, dodging the attacks at an incredible speed. He nearly got it in the symbol, but a single laser struck Flippy in the chest hard, sending him away a distance. The mini-crab things circling the strange spire stopped again, and started firing at everyone, but their accuracy got worse the longer they had stopped dancing... including the other monsters. The cube-monster quickly spun back towards it, and shot a laser at one of them, hitting the ground beside it and sending them all back around the spire and circling it again.

{William}
<Sam/Garsin/Bella/Flippy/Maya>:
Garsin's blast at the monster sent it rolling back towards the mini-crabs and their tower, smashing over one of them and pushing the tower over slightly. The ball quickly moved to the other side of it, and rammed into it, pushing it back center before it fell over. After the kankrelat was destroyed, the dome around the tower flashed for a moment, and the remaining cube's attacks stopped being as accurate, and slowed it down a tiny bit.

"I think I've got it! We need to take out that Obelisk. It's preventing Aeilta from entering the tower, and it's making the others stronger! Quick, we have to take it out somehow so Aeilta can get inside the tower!" William yelled out to everyone. He quickly held his sword out in front of him, turning himself into smoke, and moved quickly across the field towards the Obelisk. The sphere-monster saw him, and rolled out to protect the remaining mini-crabs and the Obelisk. It opened up, charging up an attack, at which point William leaped out from his smoke-mode to bring his sword down on the monster. The monster quickly closed up, catching the sword William held once again. "Arrrg!" William yelled, clenching his right hand in anger as he tried to pull the sword out.

Garsin tried to think quickly, "what would make that creature keep its guard open?" He watched as William, once again, got his sword stuck in the impenetrable shell of the Obelisk.

"I have an idea! everyone, cover your ears and get ready to attack!" Manually, Garsin started to play the shrill high end notes on the neck that had nearly paralyzed him before. Hopefully, it would create just enough of an opening to cause the creature to drop its defenses and cause an opening to strike.

There's so many! Bella thought as she tried to hurry through the battlefield. She looked up to see the red dome covering the tower, caused by the obelisk and dancing monsters. Bella turned towards the obelisk and swung purple paint in a Z-shaped slash with her brush at the group, covering her ears at the same time upon hearing the new person's command.

<Lino>
Having finished with the papers and changed into his uniform, Lino walked back out into the zoo. He wandered around, trying to find the places that Dave had marked, until he happened upon the fox enclosure and Celina inside. "Hey there," he called down to her with a wave.

Celina smiled as she looked at Lino, and then gave a wave. She then advanced slowly towards the foxes, showing a hand. The foxes looked confused, before moving forwards and sniffing her hand a bit. Just then, one of them advacned a bit more, nuzzling her hand a bit.
"There there... it's alright...." she says, sitting down. She then started to pet it slowly and then took some food out of her pocket, some fox threats and fed them to them. She smiled softly.
"Lino, mind helping out with that part over there of the cage." she then says, pointing at the mess, probably with poop and such.
"A little clean up of this place could not hurt. The foxes should not bother you." she then says softly.

"Alright," Lino said as he watched Celina coax the fox to come up to her. Pretty animals, he thought as he opened the gate and walked into the enclosure. The foxes moved away from him as he stepped forward. It seemed that he wasn't nearly as good with animals as Celina.

Blech, he thought, wrinkling his nose as he saw the mess that he was now in charge of cleaning. He grabbed a rake that was leaning on the side of the fence and started raking. Out of the corner of his eye Lino noticed a small fox creeping up towards him. He pretended that he wasn't paying attention to it, and the fox snuck closer and closer. Once it was a couple feet away he reached out his hand to the fox. "Hey you," he said to the little fox.

Flippy felt the sharp pain of being hit in the chest, being knocked back didn't help either. He was getting real mad at these monsters and was hoping for a way in which they could get down before the return to the past. While in a defense position he heard William say that the thing keeping them from the tower was the Obelisk. Following William shortly after he made his dash at the enemy, and just before Bella and Garsin started to attack. Flippy knew his plan was to charge up on Bella's paint and send his sword flying at the Obelisk when Garsin starts playing.

Flippy got his sword covered in the purple paint and kept on running. He got within range of the Obelisk and waited for Garsin to start playing he would then need to quickly do the next part of his plan. He started to hear the noise of Garsin his notes so he threw his sword like a spear at the Obelisk in hopes his plan would work. But since he didn't cover his ears before hand Flippy felt the sharp high pitched noise clawing at his ears for a just a few seconds. Flippy managed to cover his ears but seems a bit stunned by what just happened this also caused him to drop to his knees.

Celina continued to take care of the foxes while Lino did his work, before looking towards him, the baby fox was startled by the movement that Lino did, before backing away, a bit scared right now, going towards where Celina was, 2 foxes moving away from Celina and then moving towards the baby fox. Celina breath deeply and sighed.
"Usually baby foxes are curious but can get startled really easy. Don't worry too much about it." she says giving a small smile towards him. She then got up and walked towards the exit of the cage.
"Gonna need to check on the other animals in case there are problems. The snow leopard domain is next Lino, they are in their cages right now so you won't get bothered by them." she says giving a small smile.
"And trust me... I did the same job as you before when I started. Its a step everyone here has to pass by once." she says
