Trex nodded. Skye didn't talk much about her past and the only reason she did was because they practically pulled it out of her. It must have been hard growing up in a place where survival was everything and you didn't know who you could trust. It made his life seem so simple, so perfect. "You're probably right." He conceded. "We don't need to know now, even if we get attacked. We'll probably figure it out. Though it would be nice to know for planning sake, it would be better to wait until she is ready." He looked ahead. 

It was going to be a long trip to the Capitol. Even if they had faster horses it would still take a day or two. He glanced at Zelia when she asked what he thought was in it. "I don't know. Maybe some rare gem or lacrima." He glanced ahead as they exited the town. "Maybe the deed of an important property." He shook his head. "Or it could be something some other wizard is after and they want to keep it safe. I'm not sure if this is going to be an easy quest or going to head terribly wrong." He glanced sideways at her. "What do you think it is?" His eyes twinkled. "Perhaps we should see how many items we could guess before we get bored, or run out." It would be something to pass the time. As they shot ideas back and forth and laughed at one absurd one, he leaned back content. Zelia was a good friend. He was glad he had teamed up with her way back when. 

When he had first joined the guild his intent was to get as powerful as quickly as he could. He didn't spend a lot of time socializing and he rarely talked to anyone else, especially a girl. Having grown up with several brothers and no sisters on a farm where the closest neighbor was some distance away, he really hadn't had a lot of female contact outside of his mother. The only exception was the Kolin twins from two farms away. Both girls were so giddy and annoying, he couldn't stand them. They barely did any work, not even helping their mother out. The day he met Zelia and teamed up with her was a day he wouldn't forget. Still closed, he performed like the gentleman his mother raised and agreed to do a job with her. At first it was more out of necessity and duty that he worked with her but during that quest he found she was not like most girls he knew. Sure there were many female wizards in Fairy Tail but he never really went on a quest with them. It wasn't until later he found that most of Fairy Tail wizards, no matter the gender, were not at all like the lazy Kolin twins. The dedication and determination that Zelia put into the quest started the hint of respect he had for her, not because he had to, but because of her skills. They had been inseparable since, doing almost all their quests together. And now look at them, comfortable in each others presence and able to know what the other was thinking in battle. They made a good team.

Taking the package, Skye cast an cloaking spell to make the package invisible to all but the four of them. Then, stepping on one of the benches she stretched toward the top of the wagon. Wedging the book in between a few boards and out of sight she stepped back down. "Most people look in the floorboards or benches." She explained. "That should be good for short notice in case anything happens." In a wagon this type nothing was completely safe. Robbers or thieves could just tear the place apart. However, this would buy them time until one of them could come back. Sitting down, she toyed with the thin silver belt that held her outer skirt on. It really wasn't a skirt as it didn't come all the way around and she was wearing pants. But she didn't know what else to call it having picked it up the first week upon entering Fiore. She shrugged trying to think of a game idea they could do.

It seemed strange to play a game, as it was rare that she did it. She really hadn't had much time since coming to Fiore to play games. Even back in Caelum more time was spent trying to survive then having fun. But they still had games. Some of them revolved around what-ifs. What if you were in such and such place? Or what if you were someone else? But neither game seemed appropriate. They could be somewhat revealing about oneself, ones dreams and passions. Unless of course the individual was really good at just making it a joke. She had done it in the past but she didn't feel comfortable trying it now. Though she felt she was almost part of the team, there was still much she preferred to keep closed. Besides, they all probably were living their dreams or had better games. Flynn would probably just laugh at some of her ideas. So with those games out, that just left one: [url=http://avatar.wikia.com/wiki/Pai_Sho]Pai Sho[/url]. Lucky for them, she had the tiles and chalk to create the board. Normally they would just use dirt but inside the wagon they didn't have dirt to draw in. "We can play Pai Sho." She offered tentatively. "Do you know how to play?" For all she knew, they considered it a child's game here. If he even knew what the game was. In the short time she had been in Fiore, she hadn't seen much of it . But then again, she hadn't really hung out in areas where the games were. Hesitantly, she pulled her bag over and got out the tiles and chalk. "I can teach you if you are game." She stated.
