One more reason to keep on going

Irma was gone. Matt was gone. Just about everyone from their universe seemed to have been podded, and Kaya decided, in the wake of this, that she should still make sure the classrooms were kept clean. The place she was staying, Will's room with all of the gymnastics, had been clean after Kaya ad attempted a fairly rigorous workout. She had made sure that Matt's wares were stocked, the common room swept and cleaned, so that when the other came around, they would have a nice place to sit and talk.

First there was Cornelia's room, with all of its earth nation goodness and flowers, making sure that the architecture was carefully polished and everything watered so nothing was neglected. She couldn't help passing by this room and thinking of Toph.

Then she moved onto Hay Lin's room, which never failed to remind her of Aang with all of its wind implements, very much something an airbender would have loved: she would have to make sure to tell both Aang and Nima about it if they had the chance to visit. It always seemed so big and grand and open to her, as she thought the element air should anyhow.

Tarnee's room, while once making her wary with its affiliation for fire, was gotten over once you stepped inside: it was kept in balance with all of the books and the globes that were a representation of energy everywhere. She always loved coming here to expand her mind a bit, and it was a perfect reflection of an intellectual girl Kaya never had the pleasure of meeting.

And then, of course, there was Irma's room. She knew there was an obvious bias here, stepping into the room that reflected her best, with all of its watery element and the ability to swim in and out of the water that surrounded the room. She was cleaning here a little, and then could not help herself: she discarded her clothing, wrapped only in her underclothes and jumped in, allowing the underwater environment to envelop her. Perhaps her favorite thing about this place was how she could still breathe underwater.

She was so entranced, she did not notice anyone coming in.

Nokosi knew where Kaya was currently staying and in what part of the city the bus was; still he had never actually set foot into the thing.

Between Fontaine and him, it took the better part of ten minutes for one to convince the other that it was even a good idea to enter. It wasn't that he particularly cared about running into the other people who lived there, he just had no idea where Kaya was amongst what she had described as a 'very spacious place filled with many rooms.'

Ah, well! That just meant it was time for an adventure of exploration--something he would happily engage in. It was just a simple matter of tracking, anyways. He tried to keep himself focused on the task at hand, though it was hard when everything was so fresh and new!

Soon enough he found himself strolling around in Irma's room, which he would have started gushing over in wide-eyed awe, but it seemed he'd found who he was searching for. Walking to the edge of the pool Kaya was swimming in, he crouched and peered down into the water.

Kaya, who had left the doors of the bus opened so people approaching would not need the key cards for now, clearly saw Nokosi approaching. Rather than approach him from the pool though, she was feeling a little (only a little) show offy She swam from the pool in the center to the ones that were to the sides and seemed to emerge from the walls, a broad smile on her face.

"Hello Nokosi!" She greeted him. "How are you and Fontaine?"

"Very well! Much more so now that I have seen this very odd but interesting room!"

His voice was jovial, as was his expression and he stood up to face her. Fontaine warily looked at the pool on both the floor and walls as if he expected something to jump from them at any moment.

"And how are you this day?"

Kaya smiled, grabbing one of the nearby towels and wiping herself off, shaking her head a little to get the water out of her ears.

Zhin, who had her head laid down in her paws right now, observed the visitors with an almost bored expression, which meant she was fairly certain they were no threat to Kaya.

"I'm doing well! Just tending to the rooms right now: wherever Matt is, I know he'd want me to make sure these were used for their purposes: they are classrooms, after all."

His eyes shifted back and forth, taking in the rest of the blue and gold color scheme and the creatures that swam just below the bubbles of water.

This was a classroom?

"I see. Who else lives upon this vehicle and makes use of these classrooms?" Truth be told, as soon as he had a chance he was going to run around and look at the other rooms in the place as well.

Kaya took a long breath, then exhaled. "Well, it changes a lot, but from what I remember, Devlin, Negi, Asuna and a few others. The person who owned this room used to be here, but was podded recently, not too long after Matt. It was a shame: she had an affinity with water, I wanted to get to know her better."

She walked over to where she had abandoned her clothing earlier and dressed herself. "Did you want to explore some of the others?"

"I do not know any of those people," he replied with a half-hearted shrug.

"But yes, I would very much like to! Exploring is one of my favorite pastimes. Tell me, how many other rooms are there?"

"Well, I hope you get to meet them soon. Negi is one of the smartest kids I know even if he still does have his rogueish side, and Devlin's an absolute sweetheart. In any case, you;ll likely run into them at some point."

Kaya thought a moment. "There's the common area of course, and then there's the actual classrooms. Each of the classrooms have aspects of the elements the girl's represent. This room is Irma's, and she is obviously a water element. Then there's Hay Lin's, which is air, Cornelia's, which is earth based, Tarnee's, which is fie, and Will, who was the heart and energy, has several exercise items there. After that are the dorms, the astronomy area, and the library. So there are actually several rooms here I might not even know about."

"Earth first! Earth first!" He chanted like an over-excited child. "Then astronomy, air," the elf said, lowering a finger as he rambled off the areas in the bus. "Fire and whatever's left after that!"

Fontaine huffed and walked his way over to the entrance of the room. The wolf already knew that this was going to be a long day.
