TOYLB: Trials & Tribulations- Season 5-4

*the ride was pretty long, with vry few stops in btwn, n wen they finally got to their destination, it was almost daybreak*

8everyone got off8

Dray: *woke up to find tht they've reached their destination n woke the kids* C'mon, we're here

Jared: *whined n clung onto Dray, not wanting to wake up*

Carlos: *as were he*

Juanita; 8pinched his cheek8

Dray: Dont bother him. He's still tired *got off the bug train n looked ard* Hmm...Something smells pretty good. Where r we?

Terry: Ur right. It smells like...baked goods

Rory; 8sniffed8

Terra: *sniffed too* Mmm~ Smells delicious~ Now I'm hungry

Sakura; 8looked round8

*the gang followed the scent, n wen they got out of the train station, it seemed tht it is something like a baker's street, literally, with evry business establishment being baked goods*

Sakura; 8sweatdropped8

Terra: Woah~! This is like totally bread town~!

Dray: Lets fill our stomachs a little, then we'll think of where to go nxt

*the sleepy kids were soon awakened by the smell as well, n tummies were growling*

Rory; 8sighed in frustration8

*the gang made their way to one shop tht looked like a cafe n took a seat*

Sakura; 8looked at the menu8

*the menu, as expected, was all baked goods n pastries, with the occasional poultry n eggs n dairy items, bt at least the drinks were normal*

Dray: *looked ard to observe tht no one seems to be serving, like it was a self-service thing n ppl just took wat they want n ate n dropped their payment in the cashier box*

Rory; 8sighed8

Dray: I'll go get our food. Just stay here. Wat do u want to eat?

8each gave their order minus two serious kids8

Dray: *noticed Rory n Sakura not ordering* Arent u kids hungry?

Rory; Not really

Dray: It will prolly be a longer journey ahead, n who knws how long we might get there. U should at least hv something to fill ur stomach

8they both shook their heads8

Dray: Breakfast is the most important meal of the day, u knw

Jared: *signed* Forget it. They're better at starving, just like Daddy

Rory; 8glared8

Jared: *shot him bk a "Wat? Its the truth" look*

Dray: Alright, I'll go get it, just stay put. N do u hv anymore marbles, Jared?

Jared: *took out abt 5*

Sakura; 8lay back8

Dray: *took the marbles n took watevr food they needed before dropping the marbles into the cashier box*

8they kids started on their food8

Dray: *gave Sakura n Rory a glass of honey milk n a milk bun each* At least something to nibble, OK? *went on n ate her food*

8they nibbled on them8

Dray: *noticed tht they were being given a strange look by some ppl in the restaurant* Eat a little quickly, kids. I hv a bad feeling abt this.

8they finished quickly8

Dray: *quickly finished her food too n waited for the kids to finish before ushering them out*

Sakura; 8stayed close to her brother8

*they walked for a while, Dray sensing tht they were being followed. She then led them to a dark alleyway n put her finger to her lips to silence them n went ahead to try n catch their stalker*

Sakura; 8retracked her claws8

Dray: *waited for the right moment, then quickly grabbed the stalker n slammed it to the wall* Why r u following us?!

Rory; 8hissed8

*the stalker turned out to be a small child, with gargoyle features, bt as usual, something different than regular gargoyle cells frm their realm*

Carlos: Woah! Easy, Auntie. Its just a kid!

Sakura; 8looked him over8

*the kid whimpered, looking like she was abt to cry*

Dray: *settled her dwn* I'm sorry. I didnt mean to scare u. I just thought u were out to harm us

Sakura; 8stepped forward8

Kid: I'm...I'm sorry...I just...I just saw u paying...with those wonderful marbles...I thought u could be the one

Carlos: The one?

Rory; 8arched a brow8

Dray: Wat do u mean?

Kid: The one...The one my mistress wanted me to bring forth...to rid us of the evil demon resides in this realm

Terry: She means the entity tht's making Goliath sick

Sakura; 8shot him a half-eyed look8

Terry: Wat? Wat did I say wrong?

Carlos: Yeah, he was just explaining wat she said. Ppl here talk funny

Rory; 8to the girl8 Do you know where this beast is?

Kid: *shook her head* Bt my mistress' wiseman may hv an idea. Pls, come with me. I will bring u to her

8they fallowed her8
