Kleenex emerged from a narrow tunnel that had stretched for a rather extensive distance. She inhaled deeply, glad to be out of it. It was not a natural tunnel, but rather, one that was made by some other creatu in the headquarters. Either it was an extremely skinny ardur or some small creatu with lousy tools. The tunnel was flimsy, some parts had collapsed and she had to dig her way through. Sand and dirt, they seemed to haunt her throughout the course of the day.

I should improve the the enterance when I have the time, Kleenex thought to herself. She looked back at her bags, making sure that they were still there and that no eggs had fallen off while she was in struggling her way back. Just a little more climbing before she got to Bacardi.

"Sir," She hissed, slightly breathless when she saw him in the distance. She walked closer towards him briskly and joined the Shaefu and Aerix. "Bacardi Sir, I've collected eleven Ardur eggs for this morning." She glaced over at those working in the hatchery, the others had already handed in their eggs. Realising that she was late, she added, "Forgive me for my tardiness."

She glaced at the eggs the others had brought back. Aukiras, Zennies, Mirabilis... She felt rather proud of the Ardurs she brought back until she saw Kiokas. Someone brought back Kioka eggs. How was that even possible. Why, how could there be someone better than her at this job. Her face twitched a little and a small grin appeared, the feathers on her face shivered at the sudden movement.

Twoface stood back from Bacardi and the other presenting rogues, dipping his head when the black Aerix looked his way. The leader proceeded to give instruction, announcing it was mealtime and afterwords jobs would be switched. How lovely; Twoface would have to go on hatching duty. Even at the promise of pay, the Kioka's mood wasn't lifted, the corner of his lip curling into a sort of grimace under his mask. Hatching was his least favorite part of this work.

He studied the others, eyes narrowed somewhat. The Shaefu, he had no opinion of. The dog did his work with much more effort than Twoface ever did. There was also another Aerix; Twoface hummed in the back of his throat, noticing the bird's haul. Kioka eggs. What a showoff. The Kioka himself snorted and rapped his hooves on the ground, lowering his snout to stare down.

Another egg snatcher came in late. A black wyrae- Twoface never did attempt to learn names- with peculiar feathers on her face. He didn't mind her much, from what little he knew about her. She was a good, determined worker. A little odd in the head, but weren't they all? Twoface shook his head and slowly edged his way toward the group, still staying a few feet away but still close enough to hear if any other instructions were given.

{{I can't really post interesting with Mag because he's just layin' under his train in Reiflem xU}}

FooDog dipped his head, though he couldn't hide the satisfaction that made a tingling sensation run down his spine. Their leader had told him his performance today was 'Not bad'. That in itself was the greatest compliment the scruffy shaefu had ever recieved. Straightening out as he turned around, he couldn't help but glow a little with pride. 

He felt accomplished. But, for now, he'd have to listen to Bacardi and get something to eat instead of gloat. He was famished; all the hopping about and injuring himself had made FooDog quite hungry. Stomach grumbling as if to remind him of this, he padded past the other creatu quietly as he headed towards the small cavern where the food was stored.

FooDog couldn't deny that he was looking forwards to the higher pay tomorrow. He'd been longing to work up enough TU for his left tusk to be fixed; having it snapped off was hardly attractive and did nothing good for his balance. Tail wagging slowly back and forth, he dug into his meal of Reiflem berries, his mouth nearly exploding with the spicy flavor.

Tobaz was startled when a sudden voice broke through the subtle sounds of the jungle and a flash of red and black entered his peripheral vision. As a reaction to it he tilted back, wings strained at the sudden force. He felt as if they were being ripped from their sockets. Scrunching his face up in pain, he stared down at the creatu which had scared him so. A Jahra peered up at him, and for a fleeting moment he was happy to have someone to talk to.

But I'm leaving, he reminded himself impatiently. I've no time for chatting. Drifting downwards, he listened to the wind whistling past his ears rather than the thoughts that bombarded his mind. "Hello," he replied stiffly as he landed on a branch above the Jahra's head. His deep indigo eyes scanned him closely. "I'm headed towards the portal. I've heard rumors of creatu stealing eggs; and as my friend's own eggs have gone missing I'm taking it upon myself to investigate."

Rustling his wings, Tobaz shook out his fur and stared down at Ornate uncomfortably. The creatu could easily snap him up and eat him for lunch. He wasn't sure, actually, if Jahra were carnivorous or not. He'd never met one before. "Where are you off to?" he retorted, tone sharp as if he were trying to hide his fear.
