Aurora Lights of the Northern Sky finds the same spot by accident they kept Wanda years ago. She curls up into a ball although it is very uncomfterable and starts crying her eyes out.

Cinsy could hear something from the end of the hall and, curious, she edged closer. She peeks her head into the hole in the wall and sees a girl crying.
"Are you okay?" she whispers.

Aurora looked up to see someone there. She edged back in her spot scared it was a seeker. Her eyes were still showing though, and they showed fear through the one blue, one green eye and silver lining in them. She was so quiet no one could hear her until her stomach grumbled.

Cinsy laughed and looked down the hall, then climbed into the hole next to Aura. She digs in her jacket pocket and pulls out a chocolate bar.
"It's my last one. You can have it."
She hands it to Aura and then takes off her jacket and wraps it around the girl. She sighs and smiles, humming a song to herself while she looks around the little hole.
"I'm Cinsy," she says suddenly. "I just realized that I've never told you my name. You say it like this: sin-ZEE. And you're Aura. I know that." She smiles again, showing a row of white teeth. It's a friendly smile -- one that most people, no matter how untrusting, can't help but to smile back at.

The five year old girl smiled and sat up. She started eating the chocolate bar and cuddled closer to Cinsy. After she finished she spoke in a light voice, "I got lost in these caves." she told her as she sniffled again.

"I do it all the time, and I've been here for a while!" Cinsy exclaimed, pulling at a loose thread on her sleeve. "But don't worry. It's easy to get out of here. You just walk through that hole and turn left ... I think. Or is it right?"
She was silent, contemplating which direction would take them back to the main part of the caves. Her finger tapped a rhythm against her lips and she hummed quietly. Her hair changed, growing long and purple instead of its usual short A-line brown.
"Oh well," she finally said, and her hair changed again: shoulder length blond with green highlights; her eyes matched. "We can just walk around until we find everyone else. I have a secret place that I can get to from here. I'll show you, if you want."

Aura was always a curious little child so she nodded her head right away. She wondered what was happening with her hair but she didnt ask because she didnt want to be rude. "Id like that." she grabbed ehr hand like when her mommy used to lead her across the street. "Lets go," she said as she slowly stood up. She had chocolate all over her face and hands and it was sooo cute.

Cinsy giggled quietly, afraid of hurting Aura's feelings. She stood up and walked slowly, trying to remember which way to turn at which corner so taht they didn't get lost and wander around forever and ever with no food. Then she remembered something.
"This way!"
Left, left, right, straight, straight, right, left, right, right, straight, left. The markings on the walls, ever so lightly carved by a decorative knife that a small child had carried once. Some led in circles, some led to nothing but walls. Only one led to the secret place and only one, now two, beings on earth knew where it was.
Cinsy climbed up the carved ladder (like the kind you find in a pool) and opened the metal hatch that barred her way. When she successfully moved it, she helped Aura up the ladder and stood with her eyes closed, breathing in the fresh desert air. She hadn't been here in years and it brought back memories. She cleared her throat and sat on one of many stone chairs, smiling as the sun set with a fiery orange on the distant horizon.

Aura's smile lit up magically when she saw the sunset. She was even speachless. She hugged her and laughed missing this so badely. She wandered around staring at the sky. The look on her face was priceless. It was like Cinsy had read her mind. "Its almost as beautiful as you Cinsy." Aura wished she had Jojo but maybe shed bring him next time. She layed down in the warm sand and stared up at the sky.

"Remember that story about my daddy?" Cinsy said quietly, her eyes still closed.
Her hair grew longer and the color lightened, like it used to be when she lived with her daddy; it was golden brown, with natural red streaks from the sun, and her eyes were a velvety blue as she opened them to stare into the fading light. She sat up and braided her hair, which reached to the middle of her back, into one smooth braid, humming quietly.
"This is where he found his caves. This is where he brought me, the last time I saw him, when he was running away from me to keep me safe. I used to come up here every morning and every evening, as the sun rose and set, to watch and wait for him. That was before I knew he wasn't coming back. That was before I forgot because I found Jeb's caves and everyone there.
"When I still came here, I found a quicker way from Jeb's caves; that's the way we came. The first time I found Jeb was with the Dark Tunnel. For a while there, they just called me Traveller cuz I wouldn't tell them my name."

She looked at her as her hair changed curious. She walked next to her and looked up at it. "Why does your hair change like that?"

Cinsy smiled and jumped up on the chair. She did a little dance, la-la-ing.
"Sunny gave me a special little power thing-y," she explained, knowing it would sound jumbled, even in her own mind. "I can't even remember why, but she did cuz of something that I did and she gave me a choice. I chose to be 'Appearance Alternator'. At least, I think that's what it's called. I can't remember that, either. But I've been able to do this for a while, and I keep getting better. One day soon, I'll be able to look like other people and not just change my hair and eyes. I'll change my face! Oh wait! It's 'Appearance Alterator'!"
((hehe I just saw it above my siggy.))

She stared and playe with her hair a little. "That is so cool. I wish I had a power. Id want to fly. NO!! TELEKONISIS!!! NO NO NO!!! Animal Mimicry and Morphing, I used to always want that. I even made a comic book with my a superhero like that." She ran to her room and brought out a few sketches of a girl just like her with animal parts on ehr body who could talk and transform into animals. "but of course back then I never thought it was possible. It was just a silly kid dream. What do I have to do. Ill do anything she wants. Please. Please. Please." she was all hyper and exited now with a begging look in her eyes.

"I told you: I don't remember what I did. It was something that she liked because she said that she only gave special powers to special people." ((OOC: Really, I've looked through a bunch of stuff and I can't find what it was that I did. And Sunny hasn't been on a lot. Like, at all. ))

"Well, whatever it takes ill help her until she gives me one." (I added her on MSN and we are currently brains storming. One idea we came up is that Sunny almost fell down the hole in the bathing room but jojo falls from the sling down the hole and Sunny gives her powers to make her happy and for her bravery)
