Yukichii raised a brow at the other male, watching as he sat in the dirt and struckthe pose he had often seen when others were eating at a low table. His mind was blank and he laughed to himself, shaking his head and following suit. He crossed his legs beneath his form, his hands lying flat on his knees and he let out a sigh, closing his eyes and ignoring the words of the male.
"Yeah, yeah..." He murmured lowly and peeked out of one eye at Kalan, wondering if she was following the orders as mindlessly as he feared she would.

Kalan immediately followed Boogies instructions, taking a place next to him in the dirt, her eyes shifting to glance at Yukichii. She could see that he wasn't being serious about the actions he took, her lips turning into a frown and she quickly looked away, closing her own eyes. She let her hands rest limply against her thighs, her skirt shifting as a wind picked up and she enjoyed the cool breeze as she waited patiently for whatever it was Boogie was trying to access.

Boogie instructed, "Let yourself extend outside of your body, with your breath jettison your consciousness into the flow of mana."
Boogie sensed the dimensional gate some five kilometers northeast of their position, but remained silent to see whether the others would catch on as well. Boogie imagined Yukichii wouldn't bother to put in the effort, even to broaden his own skills. However, Kalan seemed to be trying in earnest and hopefully she might at least sense a general direction.
Boogie bided his time, giving a Kalan a chance to learn this skill for herself.

Yukichii let out another harsh sigh, finally conceding to the ritual. He closed his eyes and let his breathing slow, his palms flat on his knees. He yawned out loud, still unwilling to completely enter the trance that the other seemed to be in. His eyes fluttered open and he peered out at the female who was seated on the other side of Boogie, her concentration appearing to set in stone. He stuck out his tongue, exasperated and tired, giving it his all this time. His eyes closed more tightly, his mind setting on a path to find what they were looking for.
"There..." Yukichii muttered under his breath as he got a hazy view of a shimmering portal, a conduit that he was familiar with, but had not used often. He opened his eyes and leaned back, his hands resting in the sand as he waited for the others to come out of their trance.

"Mmm..?"
Kalan let out a soft noise as she heard the sounds nearby, the movements and mutterings that Yukichii made. She tried to ignore him, her eyes shutting tighter as she felt uneasy; somehow knowing that he was looking her way. She hummed softly to herself, a low sound only heard by those within close range; not even the other two males could pick up the sound.
"What?"
She opened her eyes and turned her gaze to Yukichii, who was now lounging idly, no longer paying any attention to what was going on. She bit her lower lip and turned her head to the other side, irritated that he had finished before she had, knowing full well the smug look on his face had meant success. She turned her attention to the other male, her hands clasping in her lap and she tilted her head before speaking.
"Did you find it, Boogie?"

Boogie smirked as Yukichii gave the direction of the dimensional gate, "It seems you don't have that bad a brain if you happen to use it." Boogie rose to his feet, then sensed a tremor, though very faint. Despite the distance it was from an immense power, a familiar one at that. Boogie shrugged it off, that man wouldn't be making trouble for him for a while.
"We'll have to do a little walking, but it's managable. Let us proceed." Boogie noted. He popped his neck, and stretched his legs. He then offered his hand to Kalan to help her up.

Yukichii scowled as the other male recognized his mental capacity, but stated it with a bit of rudeness. He climbed to his feet, brushing off his pants and he turned his eyes to the outstretched hand that reached for the girl. He felt a slight stab of irritation, but he turned in the direction of the portal, ignoring the other two. He kicked at the sand idly, his hands now stuffed in his pockets and she looked up into the scorching sun.
"Shall we go?" He began to walk away from them, not waiting for a response or for them to follow suit.

Kalan shifted her feet in the sand, feeling the sideways glance that she was receiving from Yukichii and she looked up at the hand that was outstretched. She blinked at it, unsure of what to do, still not used to the kindness that was bestowed upon her.
"Thank you."
She smiled softly, her hair blowing into her face as a wind brushed past, her lips parting to spit out the hair that had caught between them. One hand reached out, taking the offered one gently and she allowed him to help her to her feet. She bowed politely and turned to Yukichii's retreating back, her fingers brushing her bangs to the side and she turned back to Boogie, waiting for his signal to move on.

Boogie nodded to Kalan and started walking. Boogie wiggled his foot, slightly discomforted by the sand in his shoes. To him they couldn't get out soon enough. The retaliation of those who he triumphed over was something he wished to avoid until he was able to rest properly. Boogie scanned the horizon, the heat twisted and contorted the light, but he so no one else. As chaotic and violent as the Netherworlds could be, this reprieve was good luck.
Boogie increased the pace, eager to return to the Overlord's Castle. Boogie mentioned, "Laharl is easy to spot he's about yea high, where's a large red cape, and has antennae hair. He is the future Overlord, keep that in mind when you meet him. The castle itself is pretty high end, just don't go into the dungeon without good reason. Some vassals are a little nutty and if you go there alone and offguard..."

Yukichii continued his quicker pace, keeping ahead of the others by several yards. He could hear the chattering going on between them, but he paid no mind to include himself in the pleasantries of talk. He was, in fact, quite irritated by the change of mood in the girl, her liking shifting from him to the other in such a short period of time. He wondered if she would always be like that, but shrugged it off and continued on.
"So, you mean he's just a kid?" The words were flat as he stopped for a moment, turning his head back as he caught the measurement of height for the soon-to-be overlord they were intruding upon. He cocked one brow and shook his head, sighing deeply as he turned back in the other direction before moving along. "Is this place full of children or something? Christ.." He muttered under his breath, his irritation apparent at the lack of adults in his company, and future company it seemed.
