It was a clear day the morning Hiruko had chosen to spend at Coral Bay. He stared out to sea to the island that lay a few miles out. Curious, and aware that he had never noticed this island before, Hiruko jumped into the waves and began swimming. He wasn't an elegant swimmer, for he did not not have webbed feet or any features that would assist him, but he was stream-lined for great speed. His powerful legs pushed him along quite well, and he had covered eight miles in just over half an hour to reach the white sands of the island.
Hiruko had already thought of a name for this island: Okela Island. It was quiet ... eeriely quiet, however. Exotic birds called through the trees and it echoed all around the island to merge with the sound of the breaking waves. At the other end of the island, there was a large volcano, thick and grey-brown in colour. Hiruko decided to stay and explore. It was quiet, eerie and isolated.

Mira was enjoying her time in the water. She preferred her mountain, and the coolness it brought, but it was nice to get away and spend some time in the warm sea water by Coral Bay. In the distance, she saw Hiruko clamber out onto an island. Curious, she followed him, practically teleporting through the water as she used her power to increase her speed. She climbed up onto the shore, and shook the water out of her fur, then made her way to Hiruko's side.

kiba watched as Hiruko swam out to the little island. "More and more places just seem to appear everyday." He teleported over and walked along the sandy beach. He picked up a few shells and wondered why this place would appear now.

"Hi Mira," Hiruko said as he noticed her walk up to the shore, her silver fur and sea water throwing out rays of the sunlight all over the sand. He was sitting quietly on the sand enjoying the sun at it's warmest. The water was swashing to and fro the beach and it almost felt like he was on vacation. "I found this island today," Hiruko said to her. "I've never noticed it before. I guess it's been such a clear day today it was easy to spot." Hiruko smiled slightly. He was content with the sounds and the scenery and his friend sharing the experience.

"Hmm, maybe," said Mira. She now knew about Hiruko's feelings thanks to Kiba, but she did not feel that this was the right time to discuss them. "This island feels too tropical for me, but then again, I am more accustomed to colder climates." She turned to Hiruko. "I know you're better suited for warm climates, such as this."

Kiba walked around a corner of the island, a few coconuts in his arms when he found them. "Hey, Hiruko! Mira! Over here!" He walked over to the two. "Nice find huh?"

"Hmm...not really," Hiruko replied. "My heart is bound to the earth I come from and as long as there is soil beneath my feet, I am adapted to live there. I guess it's just such a nice day however, I can't help but feel slightly happy." He spotted Kiba shortly after speaking. "Yeah! What an amazing place!"

"You want one?" He held up a coconut.

"I'm good for now," he shook his head in a polite way. "Who wants to explore the jungle? Seems quite wild in there! The vegetation is enormous!" There was an excited, almost child-like expression on his face.

"...No thanks," she said to Kiba. She looked up at Hiruko, and wondered why he liked her. Did she like him back, she asked herself, but she couldn't come up with an answer.

"Sure, We could even play around a little." Kiba smiled, also having the child-like grin on his muzzle. "I would just like to eat first." he cracked the coconut open and quickly drank the milk inside. He then pulled out a small knife and started carving the meat inside.

Hiruko stretched widely and kept his thoughts to himself. So much was whizzing through his mind right now like the breeze brushing through his thick fur. This island was peaceful, relaxing, almost too good to be true. "I might come here more often," Hiruko announced. "It can be somewhere for us to go to get away from our troubles." He noticed that the tropical birds had all stopped calling now. The only sound was the wind and the sea. Hiruko stood up, cautious. What was this that he sensed about this island. It certainly was a mysterious place. "Perhaps we should go exploring now," Hiruko suggested unsure of what might lay deeper in the island.

Shiro stood atop the volcano, watching her brother with the two players. So this was the first stage. She jumped off, sliding down the cliff. "Let the game begin." She laughed and started to run through the forest.
Kiba finished his coconut and smiled. "Ok, let's go."

"Wait for me!" laughed Tersias as she arrived on the island. She climbed out of the water and shook off her wet fur, with a laugh. There was more blue in it than ever, and she had reached her full height. "I'm coming too!"

"Nice to see you Tersias! Of course we wouldn't leave you behind." He smiled and didn't show his small surprise that she had continued to grow and blue starting coloring her fur. 'I don't think that I will get used to her growth spurts.'

She giggled "I think this is the last one, only grown-ups get blue fur, so I can't have much more to grow" she looked at him "Besides, foxes don't get that big, silly, I'll never be as big as you or Seirei" she smiled at the mention of Seirei.

Kiba decided it was his turn to act childish. He whispered into her ear, "Tersias like Seriei, Tersias like Seriei, Tersias like Seriei." He laughed a little to himself at her reaction.

She laughed "Seema likes Kiba, Seema likes Kiba!" she taunted, then looked up, "Speak of the devil!" she giggled, "Hey Seema!" Seema emerged from the water and shook off, "Hey everyone" she smiled.
