expedition to the ivory cave.

Ping was still staying away from the others: she had noticed that they were having some troubles with the colors and the lights, she had even thought to go to help, but in the end she had prefered stay away, just looking at what they were doing...
If they needed her, they could always ask her...

John hesitated before pushing the blue, afterwards, he felt himself been focussed on what Briar was saying. "It's to do with emotions," He instantly flinched his hand back, he didn't really want others knowing what he was thinking or feeling, but it was too late, he had already pressed it. He sighed, Briar was the only one he wanted to know how he was feeling... but he couldn't tell her that now, could he?

Rose looked over her shoulder to John, As he talked about emotions. She walked to him. ''Are you sad...?'' She whispered.
Looking at him, ''Why are you?'' The blue button lighted up as he stood there..She laid a hand on his shoulder.

As Briar touched his shoulder, he re-touched the blue button and it glowed brighter than before. "No, I'm not... I--" He looked at her. It grew brighter. He slowly removed his hand and inspected it, like it had some sort of infection. It wasn't Rose's fault he felt in such a way, he hoped she knew that. It wasn't her directly making him sad, it was him not having her, his heart ached a little inside. Deciding to try another, he reached and pressed the purple.

"No, I'm not," he answered her, but wondered if it was true or not. Sure he had felt a bit stressed around her lately, but he had never assumed that he could get mad at her. Now that he thought about it however, he felt the anger rise.
She kept spending time with other men, letting them hold her in their arms the way only Tulio should be allowed to. On top of that, she turned mad if he had another female friend, whom he never even considered as anything but a friend.
He told her everything, and she kept it all a secret. And now she acted cold towards him without offering him so much as an explanation. Yes, he was mad. But he would not bring it up now around others.

Shan yu saw Ping melting to the back of the bunch. He smirked and walked to her, pushing her forward to the colors. "I want to see if you can make one of them glow." He took her wrist, placing her hand on the yellow.

Ping had managed to stay on her own for a while: she had even thought to go to help, but she didn't know what to do and however she actually prefered to avoid to stay with other people in that moment.
When she saw Shan Yu approaching her, her mind immediatly suggested her to run away, but she didn't manage to move and a part of her hoped that he wasn't approaching her but someone else.
She tensed up, a lot, when he touched her, but, even if walking really slowly and tried resist a bit, she didn't try to wriggle away, mostly because she knew it would have been helpful and she didn't want to take attentions on her. When the mongol put her hand on the yellow button, her heart was bumping fastly and hardly: a mix of emotion in her heart, shame, embarass and fear… *please let me go please let me go* she couldn't help but mentally pray, right before the yellow button started to shine.
Surprised she removed immediatly her hand...

Rose looked at Shan Yu as he pulled Ping forward. Seeing Pings expression, what a coward it was..
She than frowned a little as the button lighted up. She stepped towards Ping Placing his hand on the yellow one again.
''Stay like that..'' She ordered. As Tulio stayed where he was. He was angry...Than Ping was scared..
John..John? She looked over her shoulder seeing him stand by the purple one. That one worked for Shan Yu.
She took Shan Yu's hand pulling him to the purple removing John his hand she placed Shan Yu's hand on the purple one.
Pulling John to the Blue one she pushed his hand against the blue button. As all the pushed buttons lighted up.
Only the green one was left..She looked around. What would the Green one be. Looking at Isabella.
''If the Blue one is ...sad... And the red one is anger, The Yellow one is fear. Than the purple and yellow ones are..''

He looked at the purple color, trying to remember something. Something he had heard about seven sins on his travels. He smirked when he finally grasbed the memory. "Purple is pride and green my dear miss Rose....." He grabbed her hand and placed it on the green one. "Is jealousy."

Rose listened carefully as Shan Yu spoke. She let him pull her forward. As he placed her hand on the green one she narrowed her eyes at him. Than she looked at the hand. Jealousy...Was she Jealous..Maybe...Maybe allot..
She looked to Ping from the corner of her eye. She was jealous of Ping..because she had such a good bond with Tulio..
The way he looked at her...How much she wanted to spent so much time with Tulio..But it seemed like..
her...Jealousy..Drove her away from..him..For the first time Rose felt embarrassed and ashamed.. She starred at her hand.
As the green button lighted up. Looking at Shan Yu. She was about to ask how he knew, But she told him herself..
She smirked lightly. ''Well played sir.''

He smirked at Rose's comment. "Don't I always." He pushed the door open, getting some assistance from the others. He removed his hand, seeing piles of gold there. His mouth hung open. He had never seen so much gold in one place. He lifted his gaze, looking beyond the piles of gold, seeing four hallways. "Should we see where those lead?" He asked, trying to get the others interested in them.

Tiana wondered through the cave, her eyes adjusting to the darkness from the length of time she had been within there. Her body shivered form the coldness within the cave, but she paid it little mind. She had to get out of there. Chocolate colored eyes sought out a way out with each path she took.

She had no idea how long she had been inside the cave. But after walking after a long time, her feet aching lightly, and taking various paths, she spotted light. Her eyes squinted as she looked towards it, before hurrying in the direction. At last. she thought as she hurried through the cave. At long last, she stepped out, her eyes closing from the brightness before slowly opening again.

She took a moment to bask in the light, warming her chilled skin, before looking about. Now she just had to find the tree again.
