"Just try it Noodles," Jade said, opening her eyes, "it's real easy!" Then she closed her eyes again and started searching. After a couple minutes, she opened her eyes. "I think I sense one over there!" she half shouted, she went over to wear she sensed the pulse and found that it was the exact same color that Auna had said it was supposed to be, but it had some weird markings on it.

Auna paused almost at the top of the bluff. She felt something. Fifty meters in side the mountain. She pressed her hand flat against the mountain and closed her eyes. Sensing. A few minutes of silence passed when she started to hear the differences of the pulses she felt. There were four of them.
She felt that three of them were humanoid so she guessed it was people helping her in the search. But the fourth?
It might be a stone!
But wait...
She felt these pulses inside the mountain. How was that possible?! She wasn't aware of any caves, not this high up at least, or this deep. Auna furrowed her brow and closed her eyes again, humming in a different language she started to chant. Her chanting got louder and louder as she sank into the rock face. She sank and sank and sank until she fell, materialized, into a cave, and sure enough Jade and Noodles were there. She didn't recognize the third, but that didn't matter. "Have you found a stone?" She asked almost breathless.

"We sure have," Jade said, "but I'm not sure if it's the right kind, it has some weird engravings on the back of it."

"Oh?" Auna asked curiously looking at it. "Hhhmnn, I am not sure what that is exactly.... its very strange...." She trailed off looking at it with curious eyes.

Jun blinked. They had all rushed over to the weird stone, that was pulsing, and now people were dropping out of the ceiling. What the heck was it with these stones?
Jun glanced back at the stone, it made her feel weird. The pulse it gave off gave her a sick feeling, and made her all woozy-ish. Jun took a couple of shaky steps backwards and fell on her butt. She had broken out into a cold sweat. A big gust of wind and a small shower of rain swept around the cave.
What was wrong withe her?

Jade ran over to Jun, "Are you okay?" she asked, helping her up.

"Dunno." Jun whispered. "Maybe it wasn't such a good idea that I helped with this." The air had turned sticky and hot, and extremely humid. That was ominous, the weather only did this when she got sick. "I...I think I'm going to get some air." Jun muttered and she pushed past Jade to get to the mouth of the cave, her weather following, leaving it cool and calm back in the cave. It was the stone. It had done this to her, of that she was certain. But why? And why did it only affect her? Weird. Jun turned back to the cave. "I'll wait out here for you guys." Then she turned back and sat on a rock, semi-consciously pulling out her katana like she used to do at school whenever she guarded something.

Auna looked at the third girl she didn't know with concern. Was it the stone that did this? Was is cursed? Auna looked at it and tilted her head to the side, " I do not feel any different." She mummbled absently looking around the cave. "This is a very strange place. There is magic everywhere..." She mumbled.

Two neko-boys crouched in a tree, watching the storm-girl. "They have to be more careful about who they send those letters to." Merrin muttered, his ears twitching, slightly. "They should know that there are people here who don't want to be." he grinned, ruefully. "If we explode the cave, they won't get the stone, and the main searchers won't get out alive to find anymore." Merrin grinned.
His twin brother, Mordair frowned. "We can't. The chick with the sword would neuter us before we got close."
"Stupid," Merrin muttered. "A) she's too disoriented to notice anything right now. B)I set explosive traps before they got there." Merrin thought a bit, then shrugged. "In fact, I think that it was the traps that got her sick. I doubt it was the stone itself."
"Why didn't you set the explosives off before they got there?!" Mordair whispered loudly.
"Sh! Quiet down, Baka! I couldn't set them off because they went in just before I was about to." Merrin grinned wickedly. "To make up for it, would you like to do the honors?"
"Give me the trigger, brother." Mordair stretched his hand out for the trigger.

Darius approached the mountain standing at it’s base for a moment. It appeared that there was no longer anyone her at this current point in time. Although he could detect a high concentration of magic that seemed to loom over a pinpointed area nearing the summit.
“Well...maybe I can get away with this after all.” he said heading up the path. The gold shoes clacked against the stone sending smaller rocks sliding down into the grass below him as he scaled the mountain approaching the cave where the others were.
He stopped for a moment turning his head to the far left and shut his eyes eavesdropping on what little of the conversation he had to hear in order to understand what they were trying to do. It was perfect.
He turned course and headed in there direction letting out a chuckle under his breath before rubbing his face a little. According to the little he knew about explosives they were going to need a lot more then that little heap to do any real damage.

"Wait, bro." Merrin grabbed his brother's outstretched arm.
"What?" Mordair asked impatiently. He wanted to blow stuff up, darn it!
"Don't you think the magic of the cave, or even that of the stone itself will cancel out the magic of the Romans?" Merrin looked at his brother anxiously.
Mordair gave him a skeptical look. "Who cares? Our little Roman beauties might not have that much magic in them, but they still go 'boom.' You think things through too much!"
"You don't think things through at all!" Merrin snapped.
"Better than over thinking it and missing a perfect [censored] opportunity." Mordair snapped back, his voice rising unsafely.
Both boys were yelling now. "By thinking things through you create the perfect [censored] opportunity!"
They stood there, on the skinny limb that didn't look like it could hold up a squirrel, and glared at each other, nearly nose to nose.
Merrin gave a nasty "mrow!" and shoved his brother off the limb and down about 10 feet to the ground. Mordair twisted around in mid-air and grabbed Merrin's tail, pulling him down as well. Both boys landed in a crouch and sprang at each other, snarling. They met and started to roll around on the ground, scratching, punching, kicking, and biting each other; each trying to get the upper hand. Neither of them was winning.

Auna froze, listening. "Do you hear....fighting?" She asked, going to the mouth of the cave she spotted two, cat-boys as they appeared. What were they called again...Neeko? Neko? Yeah, Neko sounded correct.
She put her hands on her hips and watched them through narrowed eyes," What is all this, then?" She asked after watching this very.....equal fight progress.

((doh, lotsa catching up to do. *thinks of an easy way out*)) 'Magic? I didn't think that was magic' Noodles thought about her powers. 'Well. Might as well try it!' She stared off into space trying to feel for her magic. She only noticed the commotion when Auna came in and stared disorientedly as she left. "Oh and I almost had it..." She murmured ((tee hee))

Jun couldn't help but giggle as the two boys fought. It was funny! Suddenly, there was a loud click, and the two boys immediately stopped. They turned and stared at the cave, wide-eyed. Then Jun heard it. A high-pitched beeping, too high for human ears, was coming from inside the cave!
Jun spun around and, using a high-force gale, she swept her arms back, using her wind to pull any living thing from inside the cave to the outside. Noodles came spinning out on her big noodle, and Jade came spinning out with the stone clutched in her hand.
Two seconds later, loud booms came from deep within, and the cave mouth collapsed.
Jun tuned to find that the Nekos had dissapeared.

In reality, they didn't disapear. Merrin and Mordair crouched in the bushes, panting, and out of sight. "What the [censored] just happened?" Merrin whispered. "How do I know?" Mordair whispered back. "Didn't we leave the trigger back at the tree?" "Maybe a squirrel set it off." Merrin giggled. "[censored] squirrels." Mordair smirked.
(ooc: They swear a LOT)
