Zoey grinned and nodded her head. "Well yeah, of course." Giggling she shook her head and raised her voice. "Alright, everyone! TO THE GYM!" Giggling she grabbed a hold of Jack's hand and led the way.

Polgara smiled a bit, Zoey was a bit more bubbly than she tended to get along with, but she was a sweet girl. "How'd you sleep?" she asked Xander as she followed toward the back of the group.

Jack held on to Zoey's hand and smiled, letting her lead him a little bit. He slipped his other hand into his pocket and started fidgeting with the little nick-knacks that he had in there as they walked.

Xirena gave Magi a small smile and started after the rest.

Xander followed at the back of the group too, since he didn't know all of the others too well and, probably mostly, because he still didn't feel all that awake. "I slept well... despite what it looks like. Getting out of bed in the morning must be my arch enemy" he rubbed his eyes once, before putting up a more awake and bright smile at Polgara. "What are you going to do in the gym? Do you like sports?"

Magi smiled back at Xirena, and walked with the group. He listened to all that was being said.

Naylinn followed, hugging her drawing journal against her chest. She had never been invited to do anything like this.

Polgara smiled, "Not particularly, I generally prefer to watch, but I might do a little bit of rock climbing. How about you?"

Zoey's pocket vibrated, signaling a text message. Unlocking her cool new Android phone she grinned. Hey, I take it your already awake and kicking. So we're meeting in the gym right? I'll be down in a bit.   -Rae Rae- Zoey smiled softly. "Stevie Rae just woke up so she'll be down in a bit." Zoey linked her arm through Jack's and Naylinn's. "This is going to be so much fun."

Naylinn blushed, not use to all of this. "I've...never rock climbed before...."

"Is there equipment for this many?" Xirena asked. "Harnesses and such?" As she walked, she maneuvered so she was walking next to Magi. It wasn't hard to do. Xirena gave him a shy glance, then looked ahead again.

"I'm sure there is. But if there's not we can always split up and do a few different thing. But like I said. Since more than half the gym walls are covered in "mountains", I'm sure they have enough equipment." Looking at Naylinn, Zoey smiled softly. "Me neither but I'm sure it'll be fun. Also I asked Dragon if he could join us just in case!" Dragon was of course the Fencing teacher but he also knew about everything in the gym so they'd be in perfectly capable hands.

Naylinn smiled softly at Zoey. "I'm up for the...experience...."

Magi looked at Xirena with his head held high as he normally stood. he smiled softly down at her. "The gym is well prepared..."

"I'm not sure yet... I'm not a very sporty person" Xander put up a dorky grin. "Since everybody's going to do rock climbing, I guess maybe I'll try that... but I've never really climbed in anything my whole life, so I'm hoping I'm not afraid of heights" he chuckeled low.

"Wait, you mean you've never even climbed a tree?" Pol looked at Xander disbelievingly, "Seriously?"

Xander shrugged lightly. "I grew up in a big city. There wasn't many climbable trees there, we didn't have a garden and, quote my parents, decent people don't climb on things"

Zoey winced at Xander's words. "Ouch, sounds about as bad as my mom and step-loser." Rolling her eyes she shook her head. "My step-loser is a leader of the People of Faith. When he found out what I was becoming, they thought they could start are prayer chain and make it stop. Fucking dumbass." Anger sizzled within her. Tightening her grip on Jack's and Naylinn's hands momentarily she inhaled deeply and slowly released the breath. "I'm sorry."

Naylinn nodded, and then softly said, "It's alright, Zoey..."You shouldn't hold such anger inside you...." She smiled gently. "No one should...."

Jack clenched down slightly on Zoey hand and leaned in, kissing her on the cheek, "Hey, it's alright," he said in response to her apology. He looked up for a second, "And Xander, if you don't wanna rock climb, I'll probably do something else if you wanna join in. Maybe we can knock out some fencing practice."

"I suppose we're going to have to remedy that, now aren't we?" Polgara told Xander matter-of-factly, but with a little bit of a smirk. She then looked thoughtfully at Zoey for a few moments, "Why does that make him a dumbass?" she asked softly, "Just because he does not understand what is happening...Don't his actions show that he cares?"

Xirena smiled at Magi and nodded. "Then if the gymnasium has the equipment, I will participate." She looked ahead at those talking in front of her and smiled to herself at the conversation. She had climbed rocks, but that was for a photo shoot.

Magi smiled nodded. "I'm glad then... Xirena...." he said looking down at her.
