"Paul, you bastard, I thought you were dead!" Heidi shouted at him, a wide grin on her face.

"Well look who it is," Paul grinned back, "I've been closer to dead than you'd think, but it'll take a hell of a lot of beating to take me down Heidi. Where ya been this whole time?"

"Roaming around the countryside with Tombo, Nathan, and a couple tagalongs. Not the best vacation," Heidi laughed.

"Well shit, you made it back in one piece. Sounds like a vacation to me," Paul grinned.

"Nah, Nate almost killed me a couple times himself," Heidi answered. "I would'a much rather been back here, 'specially since halfway through the trip, Nate and Tom told me they sensed your Flow in th' village area 'fore we left."

Paul raised an eyebrow. "He's not the most stable person," Paul told her, "but it was a rather dick move of him to not tell you some thing. Oh well, water under the bridge."

Heidi nodded. "Anyway, how 'y been? Nobody tells me anything nowadays."

"Just got here a few months ago," Paul said, "But been alright. Had one hell of a time out in the wilderness though."

Eriak smiled as she left to let Paul and Heidi catch up. She gave Joey's hand a squeeze. "I have to get back to work, see you later."

"It's called the wilderness 'fer a reason, Paul," Heidi laughed. "'Yer supposed 't have a hell of a time out there."

"Yeah, but when you can remove a bull the size of a mountain," he waved off towards the giant crater with was still there, "from existence, things should be a bit easier. Must have been all the people trying to kill me. " He ran a hand through his hair, looking around.

Heidi whistled. "Well, you c'n relax here, we tend t' get far less murderers 'round these parts."

She paused for a moment, frowning slightly. "Speaking of which, you wanna come help me beat th' snot 'outta Eithne?"

by **Creation of Pokerus** Sun Mar 25, 2012 1:55 pm

"Why? What'd he do this time?" Paul frowned.

by quackers are yummylicious Sun Mar 25, 2012 1:57 pm

"Remember that last battle 'tween Shima and th' Big Five? Tombo was fighting Nate and Eithne, and Eithne set off Tom's trigger. He only regained control a few months ago," Heidi explained, her good mood gone as she clenched her fists.

Paul sighed. "I don't really remember much about the last few days of the Tournament. Last I remember was waking up in a pick-up with Melaney somewhere in Nevada I think. Or what was Nevada."

by quackers are yummylicious Sun Mar 25, 2012 2:02 pm

Heidi raised an eyebrow. "Th' hell did you find a pick-up?"

by **Creation of Pokerus** Sun Mar 25, 2012 2:03 pm

"I didn't, Melaney did," Paul shrugged, "This was five years ago, so they were probably all over the place."

by quackers are yummylicious Sun Mar 25, 2012 2:08 pm

"Huh," Heidi frowned, before shaking her head. "Anyway, I need t' go back and set Eithne in his place. Me 'nd Neo are gonna throw a party tonight, might be some booze. 'Prolly music, too. You should tag along, it'll be fun."

by **Creation of Pokerus** Sun Mar 25, 2012 2:11 pm

"Eh, I'll go help, if not to just keep you from getting killed," Paul joked, "By the way, I've been meaning to ask someone who hasn't been an ass, but what's been going on in the five years I been gone?"

by quackers are yummylicious Sun Mar 25, 2012 2:16 pm

"It's been pretty peaceful, actually, nothin' too exciting. Kira 'nd Luke 're out in th' forest, th' Illuminati 've set up camp next door... Nothin' too big that y' prob'ly don't know about," Heidi shrugged.

by **Creation of Pokerus** Sun Mar 25, 2012 2:19 pm

"Strange," Paul shrugged, "Things went to hell in the south. Slavery, killing, you know? Actually took down an empire that was growing down there."

by quackers are yummylicious Sun Mar 25, 2012 2:20 pm

"People kinda stay away from us, 'nd we stay away from them..." Heidi shrugged.

by **Creation of Pokerus** Sun Mar 25, 2012 2:22 pm

"Lucky enough, I suppose," Paul nodded, "Though it didn't seem that way when I first got here."

by quackers are yummylicious Sun Mar 25, 2012 2:25 pm

"What happened?" Heidi frowned.

by Book the Hero Sun Mar 25, 2012 2:27 pm

Joey had left as well, so as to let the two talk alone.

He was now currently helping the villagers with the fields. After he finished there, he would head back to the house, and make some lunch.
