Alex listened to as Alora explained, thinking a little. [color=red]"A guard huh? With me, Gippal and Urick we should be relatively fine  but I guess it's expected for them to be cautious. The waters have been a bit restless as of late."[/color] she mused thoughtfully. There have been quite a bit of Fiends around, especially in the sea water. So with as many as people that are going to be on the ship, it wasn't surprising that some guards were sent.

Listening Alora speak to Urick about how she used to be quite the little fangirl toward Gippal, Alex huffed a little. [color=red]"Aaaaawwwe I see. You're a Cottenhead fan. Bet you were surprise to see him not as cool as he seems when he's not blitzing or surrounded by adoring fans. He's really a clumsy goof."[/color] she mused, though her tone gruff, she had a amused grin on her face before glancing toward Urick.

[color=red]"These two always had girls swooning over them. They really don't know how to handle them though. Probably didn't help that I'd always make them train with me or go bug Nai. You two do suck for ditching us without a word like that for five years ya know? If I didn't understand wanting to go out exploring the world and that I'm happy to see you're both not dead, I'd beat the shit outta both of you."[/color] Alex said as she mildly glared at Urick and Gippal and she glanced back but soon grinned and shrugged it off and looked to Alora.

[color=red]"Hey maybe a cute nice girl like you can teach these numbskulls some manners. Me and Nai can't seem to get through to them."[/color] She chuckled and grinned teasingly. 

It was then the mysterious woman soon passed them, riding the rarely colored blue chocobo. The bird like creature lightly nuzzled its beak against the tall red haired woman. Seemingly trying to say thank you for the ball, in which Alex lightly stroked the top of its head. It was odd seeing a blue chocobo, she's never seen one other than the regular yellow. Alex had always like the creatures and had kind of wanted one as a kid, but it didn't make too much sense to have on in Besaid. Besaid Island didn't really need a chocobo to get around. Watching the woman and chocobo go off to town, she scratched the back of her head.

[color=red]"Still weird."[/color] Alex said before walking into the bustling town. The old temple in sight and the town bustling with people with tables and food for the welcoming party.

[color=red]"Awesome! Everyone sure went full out! Looks like a lot of good food too!"[/color] Alex said a bit eagerly. Her earlier threat was no joke. The tall red head was known, at least in Besaid, for eating as much as a Behemoth. Although her form never changed, she could out eat just about anyone since she was a kid. It usually dumbfounded many but most simply took it was because she had too much energy.

Looking toward the temple, she spotted the mystery woman going inside before humming and glancing between Urick and Gippal. [color=red]"Hey, you two want to pay a visit to the temple? It's been awhile right?"[/color] she asked.
